...poses these questions? Concerned architects, builders and planners do, and one of them presses the points with special urgency. He is Nathaniel Alexander Owings, a latter-day Jeremiah who is also a devout optimist, and who is the senior partner in America's most forceful and prestigious architectural firm. At 65, Owings is the remaining founder, the central O, in S.O.M.?Skidmore, Owings & Merrill...
...find new ways to shock and titillate. Not Chicago's Walter Holmes, who has seized on the classic notion that nothing is more arousing than violation of what is most sacred.

...Smashups. Abbé Renard seriously raises the question of whether the devout Christian should perhaps renounce entirely such a diabolical tool. His answer is no-first, because such a prospect would be practically impossible; second, because sensible driving is a pleasurable good (Renard, 34, a high school chaplain in the northern French village of Bethune, likes to drive himself). The only solution to the ethical problem of the automobile, he affirms, is for Christians to cease reverting to barbarianism the moment they climb behind the wheel...
