Jim, A for-real, rock solid stone build-it-up-by-hand bridge? In reconstruction? Wow! I surely hope you take pictures! Most of the scenes created for the Galleries involve pre-completed architectural properties because we don't have pieces. Instead of naked Vickis with swords in the temples they can be blessing the cornerstone with wine or even ::gasp:: laying a shovel on the alter to consecrate it. ;^) But it would be wonderful to have some scaffolding for something other than a gallowstree. A few modelers have given us ruins of arches or colonnades, but they've been ruined and rubbled. With a hod-carrier, some bricks, and a tub of mortar & trowel, we could show the building of Rome or the Pharos of Alexandria or slaves building their own dungeon under Ming's Palace on Atraxia. Besides, it would give the guys behind the trebuchets something to aim at later. ;^) We can't drive anywhere today without passing through bridge construction and around new hotels or business parks. It was no different in ancient Rome or Medieval London (I believe that the vikings took down London Bridge on 3 seperate occasions), which only shows great stubborness on both sides). Backgrounds would look a little more realistic if there was something under construction somewhere. Gee, we could even use such items on those webpages which are under construction. Carolly
