To my great benefit, Mrs. C is often sharper at spotting things than I am. I was stumbling through the crowd inside the Climatron, eyes on the path, when she told me to look up. There seemed to be an explosion of ice worms inside the rigid frame of the geodesic dome. This wasn't the whole story, though. Several steps further on I looked back and saw this:
A side-on view of a chandelier. We hope it is well-secured.
The Fox Theatre is so ornate and visually distracting that a visitor might not think to look up. The ceiling is way up there, the gold carvings surrounding a circle of sky blue. A big, showy stained glass pendant hangs from the center. I can only guess its size, probably at least 4 m / 13 ft in diameter. We assume it is firmly secured. (For the other lawyers out there, remember when you first read the case about res ipsa loquitur?)
