This page can go one of two ways: either it will devolve further into the nebulous, ORish "stories that bear some resemblance to 9/11," for which there is no standard of similarity and no quantifiable metric for inclusion or exclusion, or it can go the other way, and strictly be scenarios in published works of fiction that are explicitly retelling the story of 9/11. The latter would be fine with me, except none of the items currently in the list do that. (One example occurs before the attacks, another afterwards, and the rest have nothing to do with September 11.) If "9/11 scenarios" is to be widened to "Works of fiction that mention 9/11", this would mean every TV show from The Sopranos to The Shield, which both mention 9/11 and life after it, would need to be included, which would be fine except I don't want to start the precedent of Works of fiction that mention the Civil War, Works of fiction that mention World War II, etc., etc. Delete as either original research, or simply an indiscriminate collection of information.

- Delete per nom; What constitutes a 9/11 scenario? Something about 9/11? (of which there are hundreds - every TV drama did such an episode). Or something similar? What consitutes similar? Listcruft. --Mmx1 15:45, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Nom says it all. First in the list - a 1982 novel. That's when my eyes glazed over... --DaveG12345 04:06, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
