Because their website is clearly much more NPOV and balanced than Wikipedia is. --Qviri (talk) 01:51, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

It is in the fact that they have reduced claims of being the tallest structure to being the tallest building. --Kmsiever 20:31, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, can you name a currently-built free-standing structure taller than the CN Tower? --Qviri (talk) 13:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Petronius Platform is 610 metres in height. --Kmsiever 15:42, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Isn't it supported by buoyancy of the water? --Qviri (talk) 15:57, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

My understanding is that of the 610 metres, 535 are below sea level; as well, the seabed is 535 metres below sea level. I assume that means the structure is supported by land. --Kmsiever 17:16, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
