surprise! you could say there's only 58 floors... depending on how you count... |
ok, so there are 61 floors, 59 "true" floors, and 58 levels then??? That work
if so, when doing the titles, will we list number of official floors, number of true floors, or number of levels?
either way, the title is still wrong.
