Agree.
Or the shaded side of a hill... the ol' "Crater-Dome Illusion" is a wonderful thing... When you're looking at images of cratered worlds taken from spacecraft, do you see domes, bumps or mounds instead of craters? That's because our brains are... -
Ann K replied to the thread Pfizer Building Buckled Columns.I think that's more common than not in heavily-glassed buildings. True, some glass may be bowed by stress, but bear in mind that glass is like a liquid in solid form. Old windows get thicker at the bottom as they slump with age. Glass buildings...
