We are determined that before the sun sets on this terrible struggle our flag will be recognized throughout the world as a symbol of freedom on the one hand and of overwhelming force on the other.

These?

I'm assuming their used as a means of signalling or communications. They could also be used to discharged pent up energy if you think about it. Halo is basically a giant artificial world, imagine all the energy is uses and creates.

Thoughts?

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

I think they regulate/generate energy so the ring can generate gravity and atmosphere for whoever is at the ring to breathe with.

Why hello there!

I remember that at the end of Halo 2 when Miranda pulled the index out of the forerunner mechanism, the complex they where in shot one of those beams up into the middle of delta halo before it fired and stopped the firing sequence.

But that was the control room. These towers are randomly [citation needed] across the ring.

Maybe used as a means to send energy for there to be able to have a reaction, and if it reaches a certain limit in the towers it fires a ball into the atmosphere that is evenly distributed throughout - possible captures by a power cell and stored for the rings future use?

Not sure, just speculating.

Generalizations.
Helping idiots hate other idiots since people have existed.

The Forerunners left behind a massive Toothpaste industry. This is their way of disposing of the remains.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

Clearly it's a Transformer spooging. >_>

People should incorporate the phrase "Suck It" into everyday life. That shows people you're speaking to that you are a real go getter.

I think at one point Cortana says they "might" be used to maintain the rings stability.
