• Design changes blamed in Edinburgh tram row
  I've been waiting for an explanation of why the costs have putatively gone up.

• Three Worlds Collide
  "The kind of classic fifties-era first-contact story that Jonathan Swift might have written, if Jonathan Swift had had a background in game theory." I read this two days ago, and I've been thinking about it ever since.

• St James Centre to be knocked down and rebuilt
  Of interest only to Edinburgh folks, I suspect.
  (tags: Edinburgh)
• The next generation of mirrors
  Very impressive use of curved surfaces to reflect in unusual ways
  (tags: photos technology art science mirrors)

Remind you of anything? Design changes causing delays... "why can't you just work on some other bit instead and it won't impact the delivery date..."

:-)

Absolutely!

Unfortunately, from our perspective we can't tell whether the contractors are chancing it or the employer is being incompetent.

I think I'll assume both :->

I'm sorry to bother you but I'm trying to get delicious glue up and running on my journal and I can't find a working link. Could you possibly email me the txt of the php you're running? eemilyvr@gmail.com I'd really appreciate it.

Three Worlds was great. Thank you.

Bet it's tl:dr for your hyperfidgety regular readers. ;)

A poll just for you :->
