Speaking in tounges? It has been somewhat of a busy day, so I was skimming the articles. One of nine limestone stacks that made up the famous landmark off Australia's southern coast collapsed into the Indian Ocean on Sunday — apparently a victim of coastal erosion. news.yahoo.com "They said it sort of shimmered or shuddered and then fractured and collapsed straight down on itself — it was almost like a building demolition," he said. This is an interesting tidbit of information. Even a solid chunk of rock, if it is tall enough, can't fall over, it falls down. The angular momentum required to rotate such a massive item is much larger than it's inherent strength. ..just another insight into why the trade centers fell down, and not over. TP
