Lynn et al, I want to echo Lynn's sentiments. Myself, and every person I've chatted with about this subject, is of the opinion that the rainbow addition to our skyline appears to be a giant bombpop in the sky. I think it is rather hideous. It ranks up there with the current downtown library building in terms of attractiveness. And I'd say the downtown library has one up on the building...at least the downtown library has the excuse that the architect that designed it was designing buildings during a time in which many architects seemed to have been bitten by the ugly bug.

Am I the only one that thinks this is just a little tacky-can the City do anything to insist on a single color-like plain ol' white or yellow light?
