Freedom Tower

Still shorter than the CN Tower

I've always liked that, and Seattle's Space Needle. Although I've always considered the need to have the tallest building a useless display of machismo and superiority. I'm glad they're not pushing the limits of the new WTC, it's unneccessary.

as i heard it there was a complex set of cable stays that would reduce the possibility of catastrophic failure of the building in the event of a major incident. it would seem that the stays are there to redistribute loads if primary structures fail.
the bbc article mentions other safety features that form part of the scheme.

i sincerely hope they don't have to find out if it works.

The Twin Towers were engineered to withstand the impact of a fully-loaded Boeing 707. It was the largest plane around back when they were designed. :crying4:
 
Not to mention that both towers did withstand the impacts. It was the thousands of gallons of burning jet fuel that did them in.

Big and hard works. But if it's too big, then it's just plain painful. :D

If a woman was designing it, it would probably be pink with pretty moldings and a garden balcony, spa and 112 bathrooms on every floor.
 
I don't mean to disagree with you, Greenfreak, but in this case I just want to say that as a female I disagree with both the stereotypical male views you see the tower as and the female designing views, as well.

Though I do conceed that were a female designing, the pretty moldings would indeed be there.

:D
 
You can disagree with me, that's ok! :) If I was being serious about any of this, I would disagree with me too. I try to add smileys here and there so people know I'm joking but I guess sometimes that doesn't work either. :)

I'd hate to see a woman's redesign of a penis, then. Probably have a woman attached to it.
 
I would like to apologize to whomever gave me negative feedback in this thread. You had every right too and i shouldn't have lashed out.
 
*lol* I know, Greenie, that's why I was being silly with my disagreement. :D

:lol: at Prof's suggestion about women redesigning the penis. Personally, if I were to redesign the penis, I would perfect it by detatching the growth that they call "man" from it.

OMG! Good one (at least considering some of the men I have known in my life)... :rofl4:

Nope. It would be detachable. A night out with the boys would go like this...

man: Okay, honey. I'll be back before you know it.
woman: Just a night with the boys, right?
man: Of course.
woman: Then you won't be needing this *pop*, will you?
man: But, baby. All the other guys are taking theirs...
