Doyle estimated that around half of the family members his organization represents think that there was government complicity in the attacks

if we formed strong alliances with these people, and kept out the crazies, speculators, sensationalists, and disinfo propagators, wouldn't the 9/11 issue be unstoppable?
what's up with this "education program"?

If you are a member of the 9/11 community and wish to participate in the project, please write to amg@wtcufg.org .
Background:
Individuals around our nation and the world were each affected by the events of September 11, 2001, in their own unique way but as time distances us from the attacks, memories are fading. Educators around the U.S. have expressed concerns with the lack of September 11th curriculum and memorial direction. With each new generation, vital lessons learned, and memories of those who perished in the attacks and our nations response will continue to fade.
The National 9/11/01 Civic Education Program aims to provide high school teachers with the tools to educate their students on the historic events of 9/11/01 while promoting and directing the nations youth toward civic participation. Organizers expect to launch the National 9/11/01 Civic Education Program in September 2007. The completed education program will feature an interactive DVD teaching aide and written materials, as well as an archive of transcripts and documentary footage.
