Every now and then I remember that Orson Scott Card has a website. Usually I remember this when I'm really really busy. But right now I'm waiting for a meeting in which an email sent last night will be translated from marketing to tech. Because even though I'm normally pretty good at comprehending marketing-speak, this one's in an alien dialect. The words "click-thru" occur. Thru. By an Irish writer, I might add. "Thru" is the single American spelling that personally offends me, and makes me want to beat people with an Oxford Dictionary, or at least a volume thereof. It's just wrong.
Where was I? Oh, Orson Scott Card. He has some things to say about town and city planning in one of his columns, and it's good and valid. He's talking about exactly the kind of sterility that you can see growing around the north end of Harcourt Street in Dublin at the minute, and the same reasons that industrial estates and business parks are awful places.
I should really look into OU courses in Geography, or something.
