It's ok, they're trying out new flight paths into JFK due to congestion from Europe and the newly renovated 13R/31L.

You sound as though the TSA has caught at least one single terrorist.

I am glad your sentiment is now the minority today.

WTC 7 has a roof that has a window cleaner on the top.. (Which means it is accessible).. I think it would be cool if they would let a photographer go up to the top of the roof and get some wide angled shots of the huge mammoth (WTC 1) beside it!
