As I stared into the strange geometry of the SAHMRI building I was taken back to an equally wondrous building I remembered from earlier times.

A single building as large as a city and so wondrous to behold it held the native locals in superstitious awe. That building, or more correctly, that citadel was created by the inhabitants of the planet Exxillon, was declared the 700th wonder of the universe and ultimately it brought about their demise.

At this point only a true and seasoned Whovian would have a clue what I am talking. If you are just a little curious it will not take you too long to discover this story of The Dr, the Exxillons and the Daleks.

Let’s hope the SAHMRI building does not lead us to a similar fate.
