        i think i've lost barrnone.

        since i finished canary wharf tower, i'm gonna go ahead and count my flights toward the twin towers. we're nearly to the top anyway and possibly, barr has reached the top and is waiting for me. ??????

        so i'll be finishing up petronas twin towers tomorrow.
