More change

The Bush era wanted to name the new trade center building "The Freedom Tower" just as they renamed French Fries to Freedom Fries. (By the way, when I order french fries, I make sure to say FFFRench fries please :)

Good news is a decision has been made to change this new building name to One World Trade Center which I consider positive. I just hope they mean one world and not just a world for a small minority.

The Freedom Tower is out. One World Trade Center is in.

The Port Authority, the agency that owns the building at Ground Zero, said Thursday that the signature skyscraper replacing the Twin Towers destroyed on Sept. 11, 2001, will be more commonly known as One World Trade Center.

The reason for the name swapping? One World Trade Center is more marketable, said Steve Sigmund, a spokesman for the Port Authority.

"We believe there's been a good response in the marketplace toward it," Sigmund said Thursday.
