The Shape of things to come

Thanks to Peter D.

Charley, a new retiree-greeter at ASDA, just couldn't seem to get to work on

time. Every day he was 5, 10, 15 minutes late. But he was a good worker,

really tidy, clean-shaven, sharp minded and a real credit to the company and

obviously demonstrating their "Older Person Friendly" policies.

One day the boss called him into the office for a talk.

"Charlie, I have to tell you, I like your work ethic, you do a bang up job,

but your being late so often is quite bothersome." "Yes, I know boss, and I

am working on it."

''Well good, you're a team player. That's what I like to hear. It's odd

though your coming in late.

I know you're retired from the Armed Forces. What did they say if you came

in late there?"

''They said, "Good morning Admiral, can I get you a coffee, sir?'''

Have you ever seen a building in motion that actually changes its shape? Sounds unbelievable but not to Dr. David Fisher. This building will never appear exactly the same twice.

It is amazing but you will have the choice of waking up to sunrise in your bedroom and enjoying sunsets over the ocean at dinner.

In addition to being such an incredible engineering miracle it will produce energy for itself and even for other buildings because it will have wind turbines fitted between each rotating floor (picture 2). So an 80-story building will have up to 79 wind turbines, making it a true green power plant.
