She's started by talking about bad & misguided civic planning being like the pseudo-science of bloodletting in the previous century. That what we thought we knew was a lot of ritual based on no true research and that planners and university students loved to plan utopian fantasies rather than real, liveable cities. She's starting her big pitch for complexity and diversity. Powerful ideas! A lot to think about!
