A Missed Opportunity

DUBAI (AFP) - Burj Dubai, a tower rising in the booming Gulf emirate, has become the tallest building in the world at 512.1 metres (1,680 feet), surpassing Taiwan's Taipei 101 which is 508 metres (1,667 feet) tall, developers Emaar said Saturday.
It should have been a hotel. Then, it would fill up with people from all around the world speaking all manner of languages and not understanding each other.

It could have then become the all new, modern-day Tower Of Babel.

You know, consider where it's at.

Tower of Babel, Bobert?
I thought you didn't buy that "old, outdated book full of myths and fairytales"...
I suspect that will continue to change!

I read the Wizard of Oz and comment on it occasionally also....
