Guessing the subject matter from the most recent rumors... Fun!

The World's Columbian Exposition might offer a fun twist to any tale because 
architecturally it does occupy a transition between modern (avant garde?) 
and neo-historical attitudes toward culture, all the while extolling 
"progress."  And don't forget that the England's Crystal Palace, figuring so 
prominently at the beginning of GR and as the location of the Virgin/Dynamo 
of V is a close cousin of this other Exposition.
