They've been utilizing a giant crane directly over my office for the past two weeks. They've dropped things and each time it shakes the room and little particles fall down from the ceiling.

Dmek, don't you work at Alumax? I didn't hear about the crane thing...

It's totally bizarre. I had never heard of a crane collapsing and now 3 in 2 weeks? Strange to say the least. I don't like heights, and just looking at those huge things makes me queasy. It would be just about my worst nightmare ever to be on or around one of those things when it went down.
