On the other topic, I'm sure you're right. It's really a bummer when nothing can ever seem to get done here for sake of the "law", red tape, etc. My old roommate went back to school a few years ago for urban planning at MIT. He didn't for one second consider working in the US because NOTHING GETS DONE! I get it, some of this red tape and lawyering is necessary, but when it stalls things completely it's beyond counter productive. I think they built the original Bay Bridge in about 3 years start to finish. The 2nd (half of it) took about 12 of 13... and the delays for things as stupid as whether or not to have a big/signature tower and suspension span end up doubling, quadrupaling the budgeted costs due to change orders and rising steel prices. Seems simple enough--- do you due dilligence and then just DO. I wish the same applied for NCAA reforms.
