Well, at least the Palestra still stands. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestra

[Turk]

Actually, I'm more worried about the long-term future of Cameron than the Palestra. Both are holy ground, but Cameron faces glacier-like pressure that only big big rivers of money can bring. I'm afraid one day a decade or two from now it will crack and Duke will find itself playing in a "Cameron" that holds 4K or 5K more prosperous souls.

I'd like to have 2.1 seconds of silence, please...

...and then six or seven hours of these dulcet tones, over and over: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_8z4uEGGls

[Turk]

Nah, I'd play yours a few times, but I'd rather go with 6 or 7 hours of these dulcet Spectrum tones instead:
