I was in Vancouver briefly last June. The city seemed very old to me. The high rise apartment buildings reminded me of Soviet era tenements.

I’m actually in favor of that name change. And I am trying to do something similar. I’ve petitioned the mayor of my town to have a street named after my favorite composer.

With that name, the locals will continue to call it Trutch St.

Renaming things is one way of declaring that one hates oneself and wants to wipe oneself out and be replaced by savages.

It could have been a worse name. Like this little town in Austria.

But they still call it “street”.

Like giving a pacifier to a baby.

At least the Welsh stick with the Roman alphabet. My wife's first name (Gwendolynn) comes from the Welsh. I looked up variants, and some of them don't have anything we would recognize as a vowel. Lots of Gs and Ws.

Pity someone who moves there and suddenly needs to dial 911. “Yes sir, what’s the address?”
