    I agree. Let's knock it down as soon as they have the ribbon cutting ceremony. Then we send em a sympathy card. Sorry your building fell down!

          Don't pile all the Arabs into the same boat...Dubai is a close USA alley.

          Sigh.

            Dubai had NOTHING to do with 9/11...but here we are wishing their own buildings to come crashing down.

            Yet another sigh.

                          Some fact about the CN Tower:
                          *553.33m
                          *The CN Tower is the tallest standing structure in the world.
                          *It is located in Toronto Canada.
                          *Although it's the tallest structure in the world, it's not the tallest building. The CN Tower isn't consider to be a building.
                          *The CN Tower was build in 1976.

                          I couldn't imagine looking at something 200 meters taller.
                          It does look like a very beautiful city though.

                          As far as the oil bubble popping and the market crash and all that, people in North America are still spending crazy amounts of money on TOYS!! I think the sheiks over there will be just fine.

                              Weird thing is,

                              It doesn't seem as high looking down through the glass as it looks when viewing the tower from the outside.

                                Highest buildings/towers I was in ... (not in order of height)

                                World Trade Centre
                                Empire State Building
                                St Louis Arch
                                Skylon (Ontario)
                                Gettysburg Battlefield Tower
                                Statue of Liberty
                                NJ High Point Monument

                                Someday I want to do Washington Monument -- but it's always too crowded.
