Besides, the runways seem to be very much in right angles... a very masonic representation. (right angles, horizontals, and perpendiculars)
Mmmkay. I can tell right there that you're not a pilot and haven't much experience with planes.
The reason they're at "right angles" has to do with traffic AND weather patterns in the area. Planes can't just fly into any kind of wind
direction. If you're at the wrong angle to the wind, the plane becomes dangerously unstable.
So.. unless you're somehow going to prove that Masons control the weather pattern, that argument collapses immediately.
I mentioned in another post in this same thread that the layout of the runways are strange because typically they are designed to accomodate for wind
conditions and the navaids available to the pilots. I don't understand how they could allow more than 2 runways to be open at a time, but hey if the
wind just doesn't move over there in Denver than I guess placing runways at right angles to each other is perfect!

There is a ton of strange sybolism in the murals that are just plain sick to look at. It is art, and what is art to one person may not be to the
next. But in such a major public venue, there is a message that is to be taken from them.
And I can tell you don't have much exposure to Mexican mural-style art. The artist is Hispanic and this is a traditional style with some very
traditional Hispanic and US cultural elements in it.
Ok, so I don't study creepy Mexican murals. Ok, just look a little deeper... they don't look so traditional to me... of course I am not an expert
(which you like to point out) but I have been to museums, and went to school and college and saw some strage art in my time... but that art is a bit
disturbing for Denver. And what is one persons art may not be anothers, but the art does contain symbolism of some sort, in fact I think I read an
interview with the artist who described what each mural was about.
He may not find it strange, and you may not, but I'll bet you that many people do.

But Geometry is very evidently used in the floor pattern designs and in the designs of the airport itself... it seems to me there was a mason at one
of the wheels of design.
...and (no offense) that you don't have much experience with building houses and architectural design. Geometric patterns make a place look less
barren and less bleak and there are certain patterns that people seem to prefer.
That is why there are vaulted ceilings, archways, and patterned tile and flooring and they make things look nice. Ok... if you like I will retract
the statement that masons were at work with the design of the DIA. Even though there are millions of masons in the U.S. I am sure that not one single
mason would have worked on the DIA. I mean why would they? It's not like they hold real jobs... they just sit and conspire about just all day long.

I would love to hear more feedback from more masons about the symbology, geometry, and dedication in the DIA.
I'm betting the answer is "none" and that the only Masonic symbology there is actually on that plaque (whatever it's there for.) Since you
haven't stepped inside a Masonic building, you probably wouldn't be familiar with what they really look like. This is simply Good Architecture and
a mural from a culture that you're obviously not familiar with.
Your right... I haven't read really anything from a mason that has said anything about any symbology in the DIA. I was just asking to see if anyone
who was a mason could see any masonic sybolism in the design and patterns of the DIA. But there weren't really any responses on that, so I guess
there isn't any.
Oh yeah,
You are right, I am not a pilot. But a friend of mine, that I have known since 14, who is now a captain for a commercial airline, and was a CFI
(Certified Flight Instructor) was teaching me for a while.
You were right again, I don't know much about Mexican or Hispanic art. But my brother is a very well respected artist in a major city in the U.S.
and has painted many murals, paintings, created sculptures, won awards, was published, in the news, owned a gallery and worked as the art director for
many new and old buildings buying art for the spaces. So, art to me is a foreign subject as well.
And right again... no, I don't design or build houses or other pieces of architecture. But I did take drafting in high school and architectural
design in college... but I don't really remember too much.
But you were wrong on one point, I have been inside 2 masonic lodges... not many, but I have been in some. Of which I am very familiar with the
interior of one, and the other was very nice... lots of hard wood and stuff.
But I will agree with you on one point...

I like the place, it looks neat! The murals, I am not so familiar with them or the culture, but they freak me out and wouldn't hang them on any wall
I would look at. But that is just my personal opinion.
But there is a reason for every design. Just look at a corporate logo... those have more reasons for why they look like they do than anything I have
ever encountered... so I believe that the DIA does have reasons for the patterns, shapes and designs beyond the fact that they look nice.
Otherwise, it could be NWO/Illuminati/Bilderberger/Bohemian Grove/Reptilian/Grey/Silly Putty symbology.
And please don't take this as a personal attack... but I am not just some hick posting junk on here just to create a stir. It is a forum for
discussion... and I am discussing.
Whew... I hate long posts... sorry to everyone that reads this far.
