        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

                      Actually I think it's great also, but I showed it to a colleague, and he went off like a cannon, so I suspected others might as well.
                      Here's a little more info on it.

                            When it's winter it's always nice to think of those pleasant outdoor spaces.

                              Well Dale, you've rekindled my love for interesting housing design again! ('Sustainable' or not, I don't care, as long as it's really cosy!!) Thanks very much.

                              Here's one architect I am really passionate about, Andrew Michael Geller, particularly the Pearlroth beach house;

                                Interestingly, I think I am more familiar with his artwork than his architecture. Thanks for this.

                                            Quoting dale from a previous page: "Although I still think fine design is subjective, are there then objective attributes that define it?"... and the rest of the post. Thank you for making that statement
                                            This is just an expansion of your comments, NOT in opposition:
                                            What do you think of pocketless button down shirts, whether major label or not? Innovative? Stylish?
                                            My first reaction 10+years ago was "emasculating." "Whimsical". "Change for change's sake". It has forced men at least to find other places for pens and pencils(if they bother to use them) or beg others for one when needed. Where do you put your sunglasses, your boarding pass, or whatever?
                                            Then I realized the reason the pockets disappeared was to save billions and billions of dollars in labor and still charge the same or more for the shirt, and oh by the way, it looks chic because some twerp up east said so.

                                            I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.
