Good News
Well this was good news:
He realizes now that the LMDC and PA regard his scheme as little more than a template; other architects will be hired to design actual buildings, bound only by the sizes and locations within the site called for in his "master plan."
While it was always understood that Libeskind would collaborate with other architects, it now it looks as if he'll have to play second-fiddle to them.
Libeskind, you may remember, is the "winner" of the WTC design contest....you know, the one that looks like shit in a pit with a stick.
We'd all be better off if Libeskind - perpetrator of insipid poetry and purveyor of a fraudulent "wedge of light" - hit the road.
Insipid anti-American poetry at that.
"The island's hysteria, language, is tied to the wanton burning of wealth. America turns its mass-produced urine antennae toward Caesar's arrogant ganglion, while history is advocated by utopians as a substitute for defecating."
Ok. Yeah. "Mass-produced urine antennae"? One of the better descriptions of his design that I've seen, actually.
Hit the road? More like giddouttahere.

Mass-produced Urine Antennae.
Sounds like a line from a Beck song. Or a Punk band.
Pretentious Assjack is a better term.
