Well put, Brad.  Woulda taken me a week to get all that off my chest, and it
wouldn't have come out nearly as well.  Besides which, I would have sounded
like a jerk saying it, especially if I admitted to viewing myself as the sole
worldly arbiter of taste (I thought self-appointed Humor Czar was about as
much as I could get away with).

One also might say that the difference between VA and A is the difference
between "building" and "architecture."  There are lots of buildings, and not
so much Capital A Architecture (sort of like "Fucking A Right"
[Wright?]?)....which may be just as well.

Where's our City Cuz in the midst of all this VA/A bullshit? Off at the Cape
again, with the hoi polloi and their non-Architect Anderson Windows?
