World's Tallest Building To Open Monday
dtmos writes "The Burj Dubai ('Dubai Tower' in Arabic) is scheduled to open to the public on Monday. Its height, claimed to be 824.55m (2,705.2 feet), but believed to be 818m (2,684 feet) — either way, more than half a mile — makes it far taller than Taiwan's Taipei 101, which had been the world's tallest skyscraper at 509m (1,670 feet)."
They sure put a lot of effort in the Citadel and City 17 sets for the upcoming Half-Life movie...

Americunts like you lack the education required to understand the difference between the words you are so ignorant of.
Education indeed.
That would be:
