    Oh hell no, I had enough of a problem with my floor to ceiling window from the 20th floor of my hotel room at Botcon 08. I think I'll pass.

    What the hell? Why would this even need to exist? No. No thank you. You keep your damned glass floor and shove it up your ass, Sears. "Screw you guys, I'm goin' home!"

    A different article I read said the glass was 1.5 inches thick, and could support 5 Tons.

    So no fear of it breaking.

    Hmmm.....I'll be in Chicago in August, might have to check this out!
