@seanr1978: Well how about this then...It looks like a photon torpedo going through a tear in the space-time continuum.

@monkeyrotica: American's are in to chrome-plated turds, not the British. Just look at Harley Davidsons (not to mention all the ugly chrome wheels on cars here)!

@monkeyrotica: please provide another example of the English being fascinated by chrome-plated turds. I cannot imagine what sort of evidence you have to support your position.

@rususeruru and discounteggroll: I agree. I love the fact that it is not just blinking lights (sorry E).

@discounteggroll:
Not so fast. Once one of those mirrored tiles decides to get stuck it'll be like every other art deco monster POS in every other airport in the world.

that thing is huge when put into perspective, and won't look like crap compared to the LED/bulb ones that slowly burn out one by one
