The Hands of God* hold up the tower supports.
I want there to be a footnote in the plans that says:
*Not actual Hands of God
So that’s how one links directly to an image. Pretty simple. Can someone please tell me if this is quite kosher? Don’t some webmasters freak out if you do this? (I guess we’ll see.)
All right, a challenge to the Dopers. CNN must be whooshed. Let’s submit purposfully bad or ridiculous proposals and see if they will publish them.
I myself would like to do an Escheresque impossible structure and see if they go for it.
(Some of the existing proposals come close to this, actually. We may have been beaten to the punch.)
(triple post; I am obsessed with doing these apparently. Sorry.)
I have a real proposal. I wish I could draw, I’d send it in. The idea is not original with me, but I can’t remember where I heard it, and I never heard of it again.
One huge monolith, covering the footprints of the original towers and surrounding them by a fair margin. Taller than the original towers. Inside this impossibly large building are two twin atria: the space the original towers occupied is left open.
Rails to keep people from falling in, natch.
Coming soon to a thread near you… MechaJesus vs. Og.
I’m surprised no one has suggested three buildings in the form of a giant USA. Or towers made out of foam rubber so they’ll just pop right back up if they get crushed.
How about two tangibly non-existent towers supported by hypnotism alone, a la that Monty Python sketch?
Or giant replicas of Isengard and Minas Morgul, that would bring nerd attendance to the memorial way up, and they could finance the memorial in conjunction with New Line Cinema.
Mecha Jesus v. Mecha Babara Streisann. Mecha Jesus, Mecha Jesus!
Yu-Gi-Oh! cards: I call upon Mecha Jesus with an attack power of 2600! And I use the magic of the golden harp to boost His attack power to 3000. Mecha Jesus, flaming cross of battle!
I’m having way too much fun here.

…Or in Alec Baldwin’s version of “The Shadow.” 
I’d design a Giant Robot Jesus to submit to CNN but i don’t have a scanner.
What if there were a fire in the underground towers? :eek:
And just think of the trash problem…
