With my user name it's actually shockingly easy to find out who I am! Although I just checked and the online database where I work has my name misspelled...

I remember Don going up to North York City Centre and being absolutely shocked at the highrises there - it's definitely much more built up than downtown or midtown Phoenix. And the situation 10 years ago pales in comparison to what's there now as well.
