Sistine Chapel.
I was an Army guy (with the first leader), but have been swayed by the superior arguments.

Robber Baron thinks everything starts a Golden Age!

It won't set a golden age, we need an industrious wonder as well. I think.
Wait, let me check the manual...
Yes, you need to cover both of your civilization's attribute by one wonder (e.g. the Pyramids, in our case) or several (e.g. he Chapel and the Hoover Dam, in our case).
In other words, we can either wait until we can build The Hoover Dam for our GA or trigger it with WCs used against the Americans.

I'm definitely sure captured wonders don't count. I think it says so in the manual and the civilopedia as well, and anyway, it doesn't make sense that you can get a GA from a wonder that you took by force.

What does your Automated Teller Machine have to do with anything? Are you short on money?

No you fool, he was referring to the theory of Arbitary Tortoise Mechanics, which clearly proves that if one is away from home, one cannot tell whether captured wonders count.
Or perhaps he meant that he is not at home because he's currently at work at Amazing Tumbleweed for Movies (the company that provides tumbleweed for Hollywood companies to be used in Westerns).

In that case I see no reason to not have a full chat tommorrow.
Although I don't want to do 5 turns if Togas can't be there unless perhaps he thoroghly briefs a deputy about the theology getting process.
The poll unofficial as it is, is conclusive and I think thats enough for us to build sistines with Cheops.
