Was that first one a rhetorical question?

Mostly good-natured ribbing. I mean, consider the fact that while you may not
be able to claim having the tallest building in a town display (I have no idea
who might hold that record at present), youve quite possibly got a claim on
having the one with the most total volume. The only other buildings Ive ever
seen that even compare to the Fisher in that sense are large hangers (one in
particular had the UCS ISD parked inside). Building small just doesnt come to
mind when thinking of you.

If not, do you not remember my Brush Park victorian

Er, uh, no, actually. I remember the art museum, which is actually considerably
smaller than the Griswold. Remember, Im not a town guy.

and my 8x8 stud vignette: Harry Potter and the run-away mine car?

I remember that one, and that you had at least one other vignette for that
contest. Cant seem to find any photos of these in your Brickshelf account,
though...

Most people dont realize that before the depression Detroit was percentage wise
the fastest growing city in the world, and surprisingly has the 3rd largest
collection of pre-depression skyscrapers in the country (after New York and
Chicago)!!
It will be a long time before Jim runs out of Detroit Art Deco office towers and
early 20th Century buildings as inspiration for his building talents! :-D
