	It's a shame that Grauman's is in the worst part of Hollywood. It's a beautiful theater surrounded by bums and slums. The footprints are still really cool to look at, and inside, it's a BEAUTIFUL theater. -----signature----- President of San Diego FanForce He tini nga whetu e ngaro I te kapua iti.

	I remember first learning about the Hoover Dam thanks to a computer game - it was featured as a 'Wonder of the World' you could build in the Civilization computer game series (though I believe in Civilization IV it's been replaced by the Three Gorges Dam in China). -----signature----- Without my ignorance your knowledge would be useless.

	Zaz posted: Next: The Beehive House Location: Salt Lake City Reason: First Utah Home of Brigham Young I attended any number of birthday parties here when I was a little girl. It was very popular to have a pioneer themed party in my hometown (just outside Salt Lake City), and so lots of them were hosted here. We did taffy pulls, and learned a lot about Utah's early history. A wonderful place for any history buff to visit. -----signature----- Yeah, I have my own icon.

	It looks interesting. Next: The Mormon Temple Location: Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Reason: The most important Mormon Church The site for the church was picked out just four days after Brigham Young and the Mormons who immigrated to Utah arrived at Salt Lake. It took 40 years to complete.

Ambassador Cara Jade Registered: Oct '99	Date Posted: 7/3 8:35pm Subject: 1001 Historic Sites You Must See Before You Die: Now Disc. The Mormon Temple
	Go at Christmas, the temple grounds are covered in lights, and a life-size nativity scene. It's beautiful. Unfortunately, you can't get into the temple itself unless you're a member of the LDS Church, but the grounds that the temple is on are wonderful enough on their own. Zaz, you're hitting all the high points of my homestate! -----signature----- Yeah, I have my own icon. Visit the Callista Fans Thread http://boards.theforce.net/eu_community/b10194/23653771/p1

	Next: Mesa Verde Location: Montezuma County, Colorado, USA Reason: The largest number of Pueblo ruins ever discovered The Cliff Palace has 220 rooms and 23 kivas (underground chambers). The Pueblo Indians had a sophisticated culture. They disappeared--without explanation--around 1300.
