Hopefully this works.

Thanks for the info, jlousa.

So, this is basically like the BC-Canada pavilions in Turino and Beijing except Vancouver-specific, yes? Sounds like a worthwhile investment. Hopefully it will be as good or better in design-quality and informativeness as the other two (and hopefully more popular of an attraction than the one in Beijing).

section 4.3, third paragraph

"we live in an environment where people no longer consume products and objects. They consume sensations and lifestyles"

ya, ok. it has been years since i shopped at safeway and purchased a sensation

Ditto the above comment.

I like the proposal, but I laughed out loud with that one line (before I had even read the comment).

I think the words they were searching for were something along the lines of "consumers increasingly . . ."

I don't think people have stopped consuming products ; ).

Didn't you guys get the memo? I got the memo.
We are now a post consumer society.

Should be interesting to see what the pavillion will look like. Maybe something like the pavillion they built in London would be cool.
