Tasteless and should be banned.
My eeriest 9/11 memory came on 9/11/2002. I was working at a chemical plant and had to go out of town on business, our flight left on 9/11/2002 a year to the day later. My wife was NOT happy about that.
I was traveling, with my boss, from Columbus to Baltimore, short flight. The stewardess made an annoucement before taxi'ng that if anyone needed to use the restroom we better do it now because if ANYONE stood up out of their seats during the flight, we would turn back around to Columbus (you know, year to the day later and flying toward's Washington DC). It was BY FAR the quietest flight I have ever been on.
We land, go get our rental car and start driving to the business we were going to. We get into the car around 8:50 am and turn on the radio and the announcers are going crazy about plans flying into buildings (not mentioning what buildings yet) and we look at each other and both say "oh no, not again". About 5-10 minutes goes by before a host jumps in and says that they were replaying the previous years broadcast of the 9/11 attacks.
There was a 5+ minute span where we both honestly thought it was happening again a year later on 9/11/2002.
