#1 One of the most interesting anti-terror developments is the rise of modern art that has actual security value. For example, the would-be suicide car bomber may now have to surmount an 18-step staircase, a "pond" that doubles as a moat, a grove of trees that provides no direct "line of movement" towards the target, and a "split-in-half obsidian canoe" that doubles as an anti-ram barrier ...

How's that sound?

All I know is that the Leaning Tower has stood for over 500 years and must continue to!
(I actually climbed up the thing in 1979--unforgettable!)
