[QUOTE="J.Quondam, post: 8448899, member: 7030100"] [B]hemisphere:[/B] I still don't understand where this idea comes from that the word "hemisphere" somehow necessitates a floor? I men, it's just exactly half a sphere, nothing more. Was this because of something Crawford said? [B]dome:[/B] When the tour guide says, [I]"Look at the dome!"[/I], no one looks at the floor; everyone stares at the ceiling. Up where the dome is. The floor could be right below it, far below it, or even non-existent if someone chose to dig a bottomless shaft there. [B]My 2cp:[/B] LTH has no floor.
