Viaduct Park?.
At a minimum, they should post the area.
Something along the lines of "CAUTION: Earthquake, crumble, mass death."
Then when the big one hits in the middle of a concert, they can be all, like, "Hey, we put up signs, didn't we?"

I Hate You, Garrison Keillor.
@25 What about the tedious trope of people in the world of fine arts being humorless, pretentious, and elitist?
The reactions here to Keillor's essay have only served to play that trope straight, rather than avert or subvert it.

I Hate You, Garrison Keillor.
Garrison Keilor has done more to promote art than anybody on the Stranger's staff.

But the arts of radio theater, folk music, and (shudder) spoken poetry have received amazing exposure due to his shows.
You don't have to like him. You don't even have to agree with his positions in this one essay.
But "hate" is a strong word for your distaste, Jen Graves.
I'd have expected that sort of vitriol from Erica Barnett, not you.

A Gorilla Names Its Baby.
"a human was to see, in his/her lifetime, far more gorillas or chimps than other human beings"
Then why was the existence of large primates, such as gorillas and orangutans, considered a myth up until the 19th century?
Citation needed, Charles.

Ass-fucking. In the Slog.
Not the kind you'd have expected, however.
