The upside down house in Poland
http://www.reuters.com/news/video/videoStory?videoId=65013


A Polish businessman and philanthropist has built an upside down house to remind people of wrongdoings against humanity.

He should have called it Bushco's plan for humanity.

2. That is so cool!
It's interesting that the construction workers had to take breaks every 3 hours while building it due to them becoming disoriented and dizzy...

4. We have a building here that shifted during the 1907 earthquake
It's at Fort Charles in Port Royal and as you walk in you're giddy.

7. A little closer to home is Wonder Works Upside Down House on International Drive in
Orlando, Florida.

I love the place. It is full of really neat science for kids and adults. You hear the house creaking as you drive or walk by.

It's a lot smaller than Disney, but it is more fun, in my opinion...
