 Robert
Kelly (right), professor of materials science
and engineering at the University of Virginia,
will be among the family members and other
guests attending a formal groundbreaking
today in Arlington, Va., for the memorial
to commemorate the 184 people killed when
hijackers crashed an airplane into the
Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. Kelly, whose
expertise is in corrosion, determined
which stainless steel alloy would best
endure the elements in a memorial design
that calls for 184 simple, streamlined
metal benches — one
for each of the people killed during the
terrorist
attack. Full
story (including audio).
