I worked for a lady who made, by hand, real candy. Dood. Everybody called her Grandma. She was big as a house. Her candy was to DIE for. Her caramels.... *swoon* NOTHING like the stuff you get in stores. The difference between fresh string beans and canned? Multiply by a hundred or so... Yeah.
I *know* about the symbolic ivory tower and all that, but i had to call you out anyway; that's my job. *grin* And the same goes for the name outlasting the color. People would ASK. Why does everyone call that BLACK BUILDING the IVORY TOWER, huh? they'd say, scratching their heads, looking at the locals like they's loco. *grin* Maybe their education system is faulty? *grin*
So.... you're saying there were OTHER Stone Foundation buildings? Is that what you're saying? Cuz, if you were saying that, it's not clear in the story line, and you might consider making it clear. Cuz ditz-haids like me need that info to help us follow along without incredulity. Or something.
