Speaking of dorks. Scotia-dork absolutely soars beyond it's measley 900 feet, cost 600 million bucks back in the '80s, is covered with stunning red granite that hasn't aged a bit and is simply ... a great skyscraper... that no amount of erudite, head up your butt, archie-expert comments will devalue. It's a 9 out 10 even decades after completion.
worshipping something just because it is huge and expensive, or because the uh, granite hasn't aged, doesn't strike me as all that sound a defense.
no matter how you phrase it--it is simply not a great building. that upside down ziggurat is irredeemably dated, and looks increasingly lame with the passage of time.
these guys still think its cool though
