After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, it turned out, in hindsight, that the best course of action was for people to say where they were. That memory and lesson was not lost by 2001. "Altogether, six people were killed and 1,042 ot

This is why graphic designers should be kept as far away from projects that create things that must be used by other people and not just admired for their beauty. The current subway map is a good map because it was basically designed by s
