Insipid, tepid and vigorously lacking in originality, the Pucker Gallery's current exhibit of pastels by Mallory Lake, Italy Light and Shadow, is a fuzzy romantic nightmare, Hallmark style.

That's critical, because a whole bunch of new technologies could develop soon if Microsoft's anticompetitive tactics don't strangle them...
