We have a winner! Yes, that's the reflecting pool at the Oklahoma City National Memorial, just a few miles up the road from where I am right now. The gates are gold in color - even more so when the setting sun shines on them, as in the picture.

BTW, does 9:01 stand for september 1st 1939?
Knowing me, that's a reasonable deduction, but it's incorrect in this case. There are two gates, at the eastern and western sides of the memorial. The eastern gate has "9:01" on it, while the western gate has "9:03." The attack on the Murrah building took place at 9:02am.

Here's the final score for this round:

Sebatianos: 5
a1s: 4
Havell: 2
BeefontheBone: 1

I now turn Quizmaster duties over to Sebatianos. Take it away, Seb!
