    The lesson to be learned here, Don't hire Italian's to build your tower.

    1) i am of Italian heritage, just born American ( so i find that statement to be offensive)

    2) the company Beretta a great weapons company, was founded nearly 500 years ago

    3) that tower was built like about 820 years ago

    somehow, i think the Italians got it right....to have gone this many years.

    tell me how many American built buildings built THAT tall, and go back that far, and are still standing.

    the twin towers were not built 820 years ago.

    any building can be blown up.

    i'm asking about the still standing American built buildings built over 800 years ago.

    to me, that speaks volumes of the architecture, design, materials, workmanship ..

    tell me about the substandard materials, cost cuttings, of many of the American made buildings.

    heck, wasn't it reported that the materials (along with the jet fuel too of course) in the twin towers actually caused the massive fires and subsequent collapse.??
