Just saw a graphic rendition a few moments on BBC, I'm sorry but wouldn't want to live in there. The distraction it would cause and a bit of dizziness would be annoying for me. This is taking it over the top.

saw the preview at cnn this morning.. it's amazing!

just wondering that in this age of global warming, people still come up with ideas that would aggravate the situation even rather than minimize it (think of what would put this amazing into perpetual motion).. tsk tsk.. but still amazing though

quick info for you.

1) ONLY Moscow have signed up to this

2) Dubai and Doha are both considering this

3) Dubai has issued a formal retraction from news agencies since no sources were verified and Dubai is not committed.
