Is it just me or is there something very wrong with the results on this one?

Did they somehow manage to fudge up the voting? (over 100,000,000 votes is quite a lot to count). How can the Giza Pyramids not be one of the seven wonders of the world? How does the christ redeemer statue better represent world heritage? I'm confused

Obviously the Cartels of South America who run the gaming industry down there have hired an excellent PR group to advance their interests world wide. Giza should always be the first wonder IMHO.

And Petra should be replaced by the other Petra.

OK, just noticed that the Giza pyramids couldn't be voted for as they were only an 'honorary candidate'. In that case Petra would get my vote

I knew you would agree.

I first saw this giant seahorse ( 5"10' ) in 1990 doing a bikini show @ the Sands Hotel and thank God I was sitting down behind a piano. I miss the runway modeling shows I use to do, it's all pre recorded now days. I saw her again @ the private club I worked @ 16 years later, and she is still a maker of wood.

When I Gaze Upon Such Fine Creations, I Know There Is A God,

If it has to be human made, and if it has to be extremely cultural, and if it has to be plain of beauty and sense and represent the best posible "values" in human nature… well, this one could be one of the 7…

This is my vote for one of the REAL wonders of the world:

I'm jealous that somebody's banging Petra, and it ain't me. !!
