Sweet Zombie Jesus!

The redesign of the monolithic Freedom Tower that will be erected on the former site of the World Trade Center is using the dead to protect the living.

The tower will be surrounded by groups of steps leading to the entrance, serving as a public plaza and security buffer zone. A series of thigh-high rectangular slabs on the site's perimeter -- resembling tombstones in an artist's rendering -- will guard against truck bombs.

I have to repeat my initial sentiment: Sweet Zombie Jesus!
