> I just find it ironic that, after Taipei 101 surpassed the Petronas Towers everyone said, “Oh, that doesn’t count; it’s not open yet.” Even after it was complete most lists didn’t list it for a long time. Many still don’t. Now, of course, the rules have changed: the next one in line doesn’t have to be complete, just taller.

Ya, there are many that just HATE to see Taiwan get any recognition. Rogue nation that we are.

Just God. From Genesis, Chapter 11:

[quote]

1Now the whole earth used the same language and the same words.

2It came about as they journeyed east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.

3They said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and burn them thoroughly.” And they used brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.

4They said, “Come, let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower whose top will reach into heaven, and let us make for ourselves a name, otherwise we will be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.”

5The LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.

6The LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they all have the same language. And this is what they began to do, and now nothing which they purpose to do will be impossible for them.

7"Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, so that they will not understand one another’s speech."

8So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of the whole earth; and they stopped building the city.

9Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of the whole earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of the whole earth.[/quote]
