It's an interesting read, but the author leaves us all hanging without any closure. What else did he talk about in the manuscript? Is it published yet? Have you scanned it yet, and if not why not? If I lived in Seattle I would hasten to go take a read but the world doesn't live in Seattle... and the attempts at making it a thought provoking ponderence leave us with very little substance or data.

All I can do is say "very interesting" and move on with my day because there's nothing else to follow up on.

I count two links in total, one supposedly about the architecture of the Seattle Public Library, but I don't know because it's broken, and another a link to a wikipedia page.

And what's with the random pictures of astronomy? Did they come from the manuscript or are they just randomly inserted by the author for "flavor"?

All in all this is a horribly written article that needs heavy revision, and I don't understand why it is here on HN.
