I just heard this guy speak at a conference on historic preservation here in Arizona. And he was very entertaining, very provacative. I thought he was excellent, but I got the impression that he rubbed alot of the crowd the wrong way. Which is probably good. A good portion of the crowd probably were from city planning departments, and I couldn't help but be thinking that they were thinking "yeah we know we keep fucking up, but we can't help ourselves."
