Introduction I hesitated to complete this task, for a couple of reasons. First of all, it seems like a bad idea to create tasks which can only be completed by a single person. (Or in this case a couple hundred people during any given era, only o...
I decided that, the only way this would be any fun at all is if you can actually see all of the layers once it is complete (although I am beginning to get some other ideas for how it might be done in other fun ways). So, I chose to leave gaps so that...
