Great article John. The part about architecture is spot on. There is a lot being lost in modern architecture other than local/regional identity. There are many people in the design world waking up to this and I look forward to the day the tide starts to turn. The book "The Timeless Way of Building" is an interesting dive into this subject.
Thanks, Ashley. I had heard of that book before and read a bit from Christopher Alexander. I'd be curious at some point to hear more about your own thoughts on the subject.

Learned a lot (as usual). Love the optimistic vision of the conclusion. Thanks John.
