Comments

  1. Jesus, someone make Reinhold Martin attend a course on public speaking. 
  2. If you took a shot of whiskey on every "a sort of" or "a kind of", you'd be dead by 45:00.  Better off using "in a sense".  You may actually make it home without alcohol poisoning, and it will make this nonsense bearable.
  3. Great talk Jeffrey.
  4. "What Good Can Architecture Do?"
  5. interesting
