Hidden as in hidden amongst too much stuff. Compare to two examples. Go to the DMN and NYTimes and what headlines you see without touching the mouse. Now compare it to your new one. I see mostly open space and the most prominent thing drawing the eye is the stylized date.

I guess I'm the contrarian. I think the layout looks good but has serious functional difficulties. It hides content I want to see. New users may not even know its there. Take notice: Even the Dallas Morning News has its top stories better exposed. Pictures changing in rollovers are obnoxious.

The author missed that Dave's art pawn shop was inspired by Honest Joe's and that the front appeared in a scene in Robocop.

John, I can imagine Pickens' response. Pickens' calls natural gas a "bridge fuel" for 25-30 years. (The author fails to mention this even though Pickens said it three times I think.) You can't run big trucks off solar and they are the biggest users according to Pickens.

Can someone explain how this can pass constitutional muster? Why do artists and stations have to use this contractual scheme?

They probably recycle it. I've seen several of these events before.

OK. I'll bite. Why is it weird?

Mr troup, my comment was pointed precisely to that kind of criticism. Look historically at the contemporary criticism that many buildings and structures withstood when later they were recognized as "great." Many if not most had harsh criticism leveled at them in the beginning. That's a lesson here.

Mike, nobody suggested you were trying to be like any of those. Its a question of design. Originally Pegasus was attractive because of substance over style. I think its gone the other direction.
