Hi, Lee.

Yes, I've read Revelations.
Sorry, but my [whimsical] apartment building would be built by men, not God.
And I would build with steel, titanium, aluminum, kevlar, carbon-fiber and glass...not jasper, onyx, sapphire...
And, besides, my dimensions are only
about 20x20x20 miles, not 1200x1200x1200.

cheers.

Jacob
