I’m not gonna pass judgment on you, but it has great cultural significance and it’s sad to see something like that burn down, lives lost or not.am i a bad person for not really giving a **** about a fire damaged building where nobody was hurt or killed?
The next topic: the rebuild! Here's some light reading, get started: Ship of Theseus - Wikipedia
I was about to go full-Althusser on it, but basically, objects of great cultural and historical significance are destroyed every day and all the time, and new ones are created simultaneously. It's sad to watch them go but your beliefs and feelings stay with you, so it's only a physical apparatus that has disappeared. In a COMPLETELY different context, Marx said "All that is solid melts into air," and this is true of everything humans build.
So, I can't say that I've ever really been too bummed out by just a building being destroyed or torn down (The resultant loss of life, in those cases, is more sad to me).

So, I disagree with you about as strongly as possible on the importance of preservation of historical buildings, objects, artifacts, etc...
However, I do agree with the Ship of Theseus phenomena & have a recent example. When I was in Park City the other week they announced that an old hotel on Main Street needed to be torn down because the innards are too dilapidated & unsafe to restore. So they're going to knock it down, but rebuild it in the same image/likeness as the original hotel. This I find completely illogical.
History should be fair to debate.This is turning more into a thread about politics instead of the thread about nothing.
so what’s the deal with airline food?
It always does.This is turning more into a thread about politics instead of the thread about nothing.
I tried on a bathing suit and a t-shirt today.I'm so damn out of shape...
Anyone here ever try eating rabbit? I had some the other night.
It tasted EXACTLY like chocolate.
So... I was just driving in the city and a question crossed my mind...
In what profession are most amateurs significantly better than professionals other than cab/limo drivers?
