That is the stupidest thing I have ever seen. Its just a giant rock sitting over a a very expensive concrete ramp. I may have been impressed if you did not see the two giant black supports on each side. Only in LA would a rock over a ramp be a big deal.

I would not want to be the unlucky person under it when and earthquake hits.

I'd like to see the engineering drawings and specs for the supports. There must be a lot of steel in the structure to support that load.

That's what I'm seeing, too. Maybe it's like "hang time" with ballet; looks cool in person but just isn't the same on film? :confused:

I'll lay odds most in L A & O C have long ago forgotten the rock. Maybe was a "big deal" for 2 days, but little press & no talk of it now. We in SoCal don't dwell ;)
