I think it's again the sign of the times. At the time, being 'round' was the in-thing. I'm still a man of those times, I'm still round, hehe.
but times have changed. People are going by the adage, 'lean and mean'. Everything from people in the fashion industry to the latest jet planes are leaner and meaner and not round. So THAT babel (of a few 1000 years a go) could very well be THIS babel, in Dubai.
Just thinking out loud, hehe! But seriously, at SOME point of time, I've felt the eerie similarity. But then again, it might be just me (and Heero_yuy in this case...)
