Come on Bill...  Just because the tower may have the appearance of something, 
doesn't mean it was deliberate.  To me, it's like that old optical illusion - 
do you see the young woman from behind her left shoulder, or the old woman 
with crackly teeth and a shawl on?  Same thing.  People can see whatever they 
want in all kinds of things.  Heck, I suppose seriously mentally unstable 
people could probably even look at a hot dog and accuse Oscar Meyer of making 
phallic-looking-and-therefore-evil products.  But if they did that, they'd 
look pretty silly, wouldn't you say?  Believe me, what you see ISN'T there 
when it comes to this Little Mermaid cover.   It's only in your head.
