My point such as it was, was that you don't need western materialist 
values to want more than you need. Additionally I have less trouble with a
day trader owning it.  He/She might enjoy it more while it lasts.

Peter,

If some Eastern Potentate, Bill Gates or the Pope lived in that house, 
I might be okay with it.

But it's probably just some day trader, who's fortune could be wiped 
out by a burp in the stock market...

Everyone in the world who's important seems to want a big house.  
Eastern Potentates, Bill Gates, The Pope, it's something in human 
nature.  <Sigh>

Cool shot.  You're right, Shel, interesting colours and interesting 
shape to the house.

As it was loading, I was thinking about why anyone needs a house 
that large.  There's something in there about consumerism in the 
Western World, about the type of society where people desire monster 
houses while 1/4 of the world goes to bed hungry.

But, none of that has to do with your photo.  That's just my 
reaction to it.

cheers,

While driving in the hills near my house on Sunday, I saw
this little scene and was struck by the colors and the shape
of the house, and how it sits amongst the trees.  Grabbed it
with the little Sony DSC-S85
