Is Mike Davis's [sic] Los Angeles All In His Head? I thought everybody new Davis likes to exaggerate and that the world isn't quite as bleak as he tends to see it. Maybe not. Either way isn't it his job to be the gloomy one? Often it's easier to make an argument by going too far, and that's what Davis is their to do, exaggerate the problems to make them clearer for us.
update: just noticed this article is from 1998, I love the internet for that, it's so driven by the new, but in the end it doesn't actually matter if it's new or old, as long as it's new to you. Then again I probably read that article when it came out...
