Several articles I found from late 2008 reported a green light for the construction of a new Colossus in Rhodes, to be between 60 and 100m tall, with the ability to go up in it like the Statue of Liberty. The cost is estimated at 200m Euros. This will be one hell of a sight to see, I hope this is finished in my lifetime!!

will they display his manhood on the new version, or are greeks too prude these days?
This is really stupid, when you have a myth you enforce it. You don't make it a reality because the myth is then forgotten and the freedom of perceiving it at will, is gone.
The "old" is getting more and more popular again...
