Great talk. I work on properties like the “TV” house all the time…no side windows…often no sidewalks….8ft stockade fences in the yard….no sense of community whatsoever. Often these places have street names like Enchanted Forest Rd. or Running Brook Ave. Ironically, the enchanted forest was leveled and replaced by sapling street trees every 7 houses and the running brook is now a stagnant ditch of lawn chemical runoff.

Touché, Dave. If I get some time I’ll edit the video and repost it. In the meantime, please hold your thumb over that area of the screen.

I thought this was supposed to be an ad-free blog? Nonetheless, the BMW logo is included on the block for this video. Also, there is a BMW commercial at the end of this video for a hydrogen car which is completely contradictory to what Ted was saying in the video: there will be no hydrogen economy.
