"Towers of Light in its powerful doubled phallic rape of the night sky"

You are making the the proposed Towers of Light out to be much more than the original artists envisioned I think.

You are a fanatic. Fanatics are good.

I don not agree with most of your statement.

However, I think the Towers of Light is a stupid idea, and would be a monstrous waste of money.

If the decision is made not to build super highrises in the future, why not build 4 50 story office buildings? They will be at the same level as the other buildings in the area, and thus not as juicy a target. But please forgive me for comparing the original towers to targets, I mean only to refer to them that way for this emphasis.
