An 'Evolution of Los Angeles' would be a great idea for a video. The explosive growth of the city in the 1980’s, where it seemingly jumped from 5th to 2nd largest city in the United States, as if overnight, was extraordinary. I was born in Asheville, NC, in 1977; but was only 6 weeks old when my parents and I relocated to the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area; only moving back to the South, suburban Atlanta, GA, in 1994, when I was 17 years old. We so often drove from our home in Simi Valley, to my Aunt’s home at the far end of the Inland Empire; a drive being roughly over 2 hours long, all through which you never leave city. I should very much like to see a time-lapse of the city’s fulminant development from a small frontier, Spanish Mission, footnote of a town in the late 18th century, to the sprawling megalopolis it is today.

Please can you do a video on "the building of Seville cathedral", the cathedral went through many changes such as the tower and building etc.
