Dave measures the height of Pompey's Pillar. (Yup, we're still doing that.) The amusing part of Pompey's Pillar is that it was really erected as a tribute to the Emperor Diocletian who opened the grain warehouses during a famine, but everyone still prefers the story that the pillar marks the spot where Pompey was murdered after he fled Caesar's forces. Truth is no match for a really good story, I guess...
