• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

That is pretty darn cool. Thanks David for the heads up.

I have parused through Franks books for hours and been through a tour at his school here in Scottsdale, (north, out in the mountain range, Telliasen West, surely I mis-spelled that). His design directions were timeless, never seeming to look old, a sort of organic, yet modernist approach, and simple yet contemporary.

That tower would be IMMENSE! lol... Note that the elevator was doing about 65 to 75 MPH straight up! lol... Goodness. Those elevators would be pretty busy on such a tower.

....Very cool video clip. What I liked most were the Flash Gordon type vehicles (copters/airplanes/de Vinci machines?) that hovered and landed on and around the Mile High proposed building. Either Vulcan or Thor would be comfortable in one of these craft.
