There is a report coming out of Florence, Italy that the world famous statue of David could be damaged by the shaking and movement of a new underground segment of high-speed rail. Apparently, there are already micro cracks in the ankles of the great statue. Some are recommending that the statue be moved during the construction. Here's the link to the story. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/art-news/8361779/Michelangelos-David-could-collapse-due-to-high-speed-train-building.html
