Saw they had an interesting show on the new dome in Atlanta. They at least showed the surveyors working to layout the new retractable roof.

Very clever design where a number of moving panels had to be aligned just so, and all work in synch. At least one person was thinking there, and had them put expansion spaces in the big screen so as the roof load shifted with the opening and closing, the screen wouldn't buckle. pretty interesting

They're spending double that on the new stadium in Los Angeles. Heard Saturday that the Rams have two more seasons in the Coliseum before they can move in (construction is underway).
