I always wondered how the great cities of the ancient world could end up abandoned, unused and buried.

Now we see it happening before our very eyes.

Worse, it’s coming to a city near you if things continue on their current trajectory.

Maybe we should leave some durable plaques prominently placed in Detroit explaining what happened so future archeologists won’t have to guess.

A while back there were some Detroit city council members who were upset that photographers were making a living by photographing the decay.

I suspect the real issue the council members had was the fact that they weren’t getting their cut.
