The Vatican's chimney, the one that puffs white smoke or black smoke to signal election or non election of a new pope was on TV the other day. Vatican workers were shown installing it in the roof of the Sistine Chapel. Damn. You would think that the world famous chimney would be solid masonry, there all the time, not a piece of stove pipe kept in some storage place except for papal elections. If for no other reason, Vatican tout guides would love to be able to point out the famous chimney to tourists.
