    Why is the courtesy phone white? Would a phone of a different color be discourteous? This thread raises many interesting questions.

    Johnny - you ask an interesting question. Maybe Muslims are insulted by white phones as well.

    If you haven't seen this wildly offensive structure, here's a picture....just before the opening, it was covered. The actual structure is shown upper right--a glass cube. You enter and go down a long glass staircase (which is too narrow and packed with tourists) to the store.

    If anyone should be protesting this, it's the Optometrists of America--the reflected sunlight can sear your retinas off.

    Watch it -- a giant red arrow over a black cube might be an affront to Muslims.

    Looks a bit like the Kaaba.

    The Kaaba, below.

    You can spot the clueless westerners waiting in line for the new Bono iPod.

    Reminds me of the new Apple store on 58th street in the Big Apple.

    I applaud Apple for bringing a little bit of Mecca to Manhattan.

    the problem is that at noon all the cabs in the area stop dead in the street and all the drivers get out and kneel down facing the building .

    It causes a huge traffic jam every day.

    New York has Muslim cab drivers?
