Oh yes I do, you don't have enough information to know how to
wipe your arse. This tower was 1300 feet tall:

You are going to build one not twice as high, not ten times as high,
not 100 times as high, not 1000 times as high, but 16,000 times
as high. The base will be 256,000,000 times the area of a WTC
tower, or 397,281 square miles, which is greater than the area
of Texas but only 2/3 the area of Alaska.

The reason you don't have enough information to know how
to wipe your arse is this:

Not only have you failed Physics 101, you've failed OCS 90 as well.
In short, you are a complete and totally clueless dork.

Go away.

OCS - ordinary common sense
