Alternatives to Rosetta Stone Japanese (i.e. Should I buy Rosetta Stone?)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimizu_Mega-City_...
The Japanese have been babbling about this project for the last year. I remember watching a show that discussed about this project. It was probably on the Discovery or History channel...
Well, if the construction begins in my life time I'll be sure to take a look.
Alone the height of nearly 4 kilometers!... hardly possible to imagine that for me!
Also, if you think about it, that park is really small. Look at the size of the tenis court compared to the rest of it.
Yeah, I heard about that one too. I think this one is different, which made me realize that the other pictures up there must be from the one a year ago. This one is definitely much much taller, and less pyramidy. And you saw it on the discovery channel :D
Doesn't matter too much though, because they'll never build either of these
Such awesome ideas deserve a chance! o(>
The only way it would work (I'm guessing) it would have to be like a plane. After a plane is in the air it is pressureized. There is no change in breathing patterns, so I imagine that all windows would be sealed shut (FIRE hazard) and there would be a strick ban on smoking in case if they did have to pump all of that air to the top. It would eliminate everyone's social life at the top, so I guess there goes the idea of entertaining people. Although I suppose the top would be a great place for tourist. The comfort of being warm and the ease of an elevator to the top to see that view. Personally I wouldn't go there as a tourist as it seems like a complete death trap, and my luck a massive fire would break out and the thing would sink all at once.
One last thought for anyone that might know this information. If this was built wouldn't this structure hurt Tokyo's fishing market along with other trade commerce?
Looks like the Russians are doing something equally crazy. They even have the go ahead for this one!
