In May 2000 my wife, Josie, and I had a good walk around Geneva, Switzerland, which I think is quite impressive but which Josie thinks deteriorates as you leave the lakefront. In this city, one of the world’s tallest fountains jets nearly 500 feet into the air from the lake. I have some concept of the power and equipment needed to send that volume of water into the sky and it continues to totally awe me.
