I don't like these modern designs. What's new in a Pyramid. The Egyptian's used to build them 1000's of years ago using stones. He made the same thing outside the Louvre museum. People go to see the Louvre museum not his pyramid. Move the museum elsewhere no one will bother to go to see the glass pyramid at the entrance.
