June 29-Dynamic Tower

So, my sister Boopie was telling me the other day about the Dynamic Tower. It's going to be built in Dubai, and it'll be the first moving skyscraper. I thought that sounded awesome, but weird. It's totally powered by wind turbines built in between floors. I imagined it as just a huge building that turned all at once, but I watched a video on a BBC news page today, [Dynamic Tower Plans Unveiled] and it looks like the floors all move separate from each other. That is freakin amazing! Seriously, I recommend looking at the video of it through that link. I wonder what it would be like to get off of the elevator though. And would you get seasick from living there? I don't know, but I totally wanna see it. That is officially added to the list of things I wanna do before I die. :o)

edit: I just found another link [Dubai plans 'moving' skyscraper] and I think the video is on there too...and this link has an article to go with it.
