Object: What is this weird building?
I found a very strange shaped building and was wondering if anyone
here can tell what its function is.
It is at 20 degrees 43' 21.7" N by 103 degrees 25' 53.4" W.
It is located in southern Mexico.
It is 200 yards wide (the building).
What is it?

Not that this is even remotely on-topic for this group (try Google
Earth Community or something), but ...

Somehow, my fingers managed to delete your mail before
I read it. My apologies. And I don't think it will be
wise to try to do my income taxes today.

Depending on the mail reader, isn't "deleted mail" kept for a short
time?

Only if you are foolish enough to download all mail before
reading the headers. My setup doesn't do that. No mail
touches my pristine disk until I say it can.

Nice catch!
As far as being on topic, I thought it might have been a small
particle accelerator or something.
The first link is dead.
Have you been there? How did you recognize it? Did you search up
the coordinates somewhere? I was unable to find it.
Also, I was unaware that "Google Earth Community" was a Usenet
newsgroup.
Anyway... Thanks!

Ah. Looks kind of artsy to be a particle accelerator...

I Googled for "circular building west Zapopan" and found this page:
http://www.enjoymexico.net/guadalajara-museums-mexico.php
Then I hunted around for pictures of the museum to confirm.

Also, I was unaware that "Google Earth Community" was a Usenet newsgroup.

It isn't. It is, however, one of the major places where people get
together to identify aerial geographic features and such.
