You have to get a emain confirmation to vote first off. Might as well get the bad and bad out of the way first.
New7wonders is a group that wants a vote on what the new seven wonders of the world should be. Here's what I picked and why and what stuff...
Easter Island Statues: Aesthetics and the mass amount of these shiny happy statues looking back into the ocean.
Great Wall of China: For just being the longest wall in the world, and the most grandiosue defense strategy. Want to keep everyone out of the country...Let's build a wall on the borders yeah now how large are the borders again?
Pyramids of Giza: As a link to the old list.
Statue of Liberty: aesthetics and as a link to the Collossos.
Stonehenge: Personal preasons. My favorite world landmark is Stonehenge, largely because of the mysterious circumstances around it. Plus as one of our most ancient structures I think it deserves inclusion.
Petra: Aesthetics and just sheer awesome carving power.
Neuschwanstein Castle: My last pick so the most difficult. At first I didn't want to go with the Neuschwanstein because while it was a personal favorite of mine, I had doubts as to wether it held up against Christ the Redeemer, The Colosseum, or even the Eiffel Tower. It's cool to look at and all but everything else seemed to have more a cultural or social relevence. And then I said...Hell I think it belongs on the list so that's that.
voting for the new seven wonders.
