Science World Leaking?

I have often thought that Science World has been an ironic symbol for Vancouver. I recognize that it was built in that window of history where 'the future' meant geodesic domes and mono rails. I'm sure it made sense during Expo to build a big shiny ball for a building even if the interior layout wasn't particularly useful - it was futuristic, and an expo requisite. I'm also sure that the architect didn't know that the exoskeleton was going to reflect the ubiquitous scaffolding that clouds our city. Who knew then that someday Vancouver would spring a leak, or two, or twenty thousand.
I have always enjoyed the irony in having a symbolic building eternally draped in leaky-condoesque scaffolding. So when I saw our fair globe under its new canopy, I couldn't help but laugh. While I'm guessing that this is a cleaning or something equally boring, Science World looks to have joined the rest of this leaky city. If you look now, you'll find it draped in a great white cloth. What you mind find even more surprising is they have added scaffolding. Kind of funny looking when you think about it. I mean didn't Science World have its own built in.
