on the bloomingdale line

[geeper]

So I went to this exhibit/lecture/review tonight at the Northwest Arts Center. Purdue University's Landscape program were having a sort of presentation, as their semester's project was about the revitilization of the Bloomingdale line - an abandoned arm close to the Blue Line that runs along Bloomindale (blvd?) Right now it's overgrone, some of the

You make a lot of points based on your own worthless experience while bashing people who go to school for many years, to learn how to design spaces. If you would have stayed around for a minute or two and studied the analysis that these students put into this design you would learn that, though you can talk a lot, your words are uninformed and inaccurate(analysis wasn't presented so assholes like you would stay for the whole event). Most students showed pedestrian, vehicular and public transit circulation, open space, zoning, perceived space, studies of the people groups and history and other studies and formed frameworks based on these. Ohh and about your grand ideas of SALT STORAGE, and WIND FARMS, are you joking, why waste prime public space that can connect Yuppity assholes like you with the less fortunate people, which you and your friends will eventually gentrify and displace. Your open space argument is worthless. How often have you seen people filled large lawns in places like central park, NY, Millenium park, Chi, Petrero park, SF and the list goes on. open lawns get used more than any other space in a city. You are one of those people nobody wants to be around because you have a solution to everything, most of which you couldn't fully understand. Let me guess you have a solution for the financial issue of the Country and you frequently interject in a conversation to tell how it should be fixed. You probably know better than people with collectively ten and hundreds more years of education and experience. Why don't you quit bitching in your worthless little blogs and having such audacious opinions and actually do something. People who have blogs really need to realize that your thoughts and opinions aren't that valuable.... to ANYONE. You must think people love to hear you, or maybe you think you'll make some money off of it...joke your work will never get referenced or published. The only people who read this are people who also have too much time and are too lazy to get involved in something. Get and education or at least get informed before you speak and then get a life, you are blogging(i read this only because I was informed by someone associated with the trail)
