Why isn't Fr- never mind. Of the choices listed, not all of which I was familiar with, unfortunately, I'd select these:

Acropolis, Greece
Angkor Wat, Cambodia
Colosseum, Rome
Easter Island
Great wall of china
Stonehedge
Taj Mahal

I think the Giza pyramid is already considered a world wonder. I would have also included the Aztec pyramids as a finalist.

I Heard that that they want to again.
Who else votes.

I liked the old seven... plus, I don't want to have to memorize another seven!!! Wahh!

Though, I'd not pick the Statue of Liberty, not because of what it stands for, but structurally it's not that fantastic. I mean, think of the Colossus of Rhodes - that's considered a "wonder", but they also built it (if I'm not mistaken) hundreds of years before the Statue of Liberty, using entirely different building methods. Anymore, even such a large structure is quite commonplace, especially whenever it wasn't built using dirt mounds and an entire lack of semi-modern machinery.

I dunno... it seems to me like a "wonder" should be something that seems to defy the laws of physics or human capacity during its creation/existence. Thus, I'd vote for Stonehenge, because that was built using (if historians are correct) nothing but man power and simple machines.

Well, Who else is voting?

Hah yeah, but you know those stuffy historians... always the ones to ruin the fun. :P

[LaBloo]

They don't ruin the fun these 7 wonders lasted for a long time for now.

Um... I was talking about them ruining the fun by not believing in aliens.
