Saw this really cool piece on St Pauls Cathedral last evening .....

Wren certainly had a NON Gothic vision and did his best to not compromise 
that idea.

I was also fascinated at some of the engineering difficulties that Wren 
(flyling buttress) and Hooke (dome and arch reinforcement) were able to 
overcome.

Has anyone been to St Pauls? ..... impressive!

Jim
