I think that, as an outsider, you can access by car. Is just that, if you have to drive slowly, you can't park and you have to exit in the same place you entered, what's the point?

I assume you are talking about L'Eixample. That's the original design of that specific neighborhood and have nothing to do with the superblocks thing.

Crime increase and rents increase? That's some surprising finding. What are those superblocks where that happened exactly? And where is the 9 month construction job?

The point is totally wrong. Most people that live on those areas are pretty happy with the changes, and people that is just passing around those areas are pretty happy too. By the way, you don't need a car if you live and work in Barce

The idea that you can drive your car to my street, generating noise and contamination and park it there using space, where the kids could be playing, just because you can't be bothered to take a bus is kind of tyrannical too, in my opi

The description in the article about what "superblocks" are, is, I think, wrong. It's not a binary thing "cars" vs. "not cars at all". Inside the "superblocks" is possible to use the car. Is just

Not worse that before and, anyway, who cares? This is about making people lives better not improving car traffic. Two goals that, in my opinion, are in opposition.

Great comment. I suspect that we all are vulnerable to Stockholm syndrome and doing the calculation of what price we will pay for changing our mind. After all, surviving is more important than being right.

Sounds like a Fermi paradox related fact. Specially in the center of the galaxy, I suppose.

That's not the argument of peak oil. It's not about price or quantity of oil available in the planet. It's an argument about thermodynamics. The argument is that in order to extract oil, you need to spend energy, and, logical

So, you think that the original intention was to say "civilian governments". You are very generous with your interpretations, I admire your optimism in how civilized comments in Internet are.

"civilized governments"? how that works?

I don't know about the images, but what about the watermark itself? Can I just take any photo and add a proprietary watermark?

Do you mean warm up? Stretching before strength exercise sounds like a bad idea to me (but an excellent idea after).

But drawing from imagination is just copying from an abstraction existing in your brain. And that abstraction comes from inputs from the outside that you saw in the past, where would it come from if not that? In the Obama example it comes f

I think the problem is with the definition of copyright. It doesn't apply to the current environment. It could even be the case, that it never made sense in the first place, and only now, we are realizing. I have never seen Obama in re

That's an interesting point. After the reunification, Germany, as a country, is the poster child of economic success. The balance of trade of Germany, has been just ridiculous. Still, the conditions of the average German have not impr

It's not about boogie men, it's about economic realities. Very different countries can't be in a functional monetary and banking union without a common fiscal capacity. In terms of the USA it would be like there was a Fed wit

That's your proposed solution? I shouldn't drive a BMW? I think I will aim for a political solution if you don't mind. There are two possibilities, a functional monetary union and a really democratic union or every country go
