The building is more powerful than the automobile


The photo above is of a Jaguar whose parts have been melted by the sun reflecting off this building.



This melting happened within two hours as the temperature reached 158 degrees.  The sun melted the side view mirror, the Jaguar emblem and parts of the body.  At least one scientist feels that the real problem is that the hot spot will move, so that simpling putting up a sun barrier will be ineffective.
