BLDGBLOG's cri de coeur regarding architectural criticism pushes the theory that saying "Gee, the new Home Depot really sucks" isn't given the importance it deserves. Drop Le Corbusier from your vocabulary, and check out the new games from Electronic Arts if you want to engage ordinary Americans in the architectural game. Otherwise, you're going to have scant opposition to some truly crappy designs. -Matthew Grace
