San Francisco's City hall has been lit up green for the last couple of evenings...
...which looks more Wicked Witch of the West than Emerald City.
I presume it's to celebrate the return of a roadshow version of the Broadway musical "Wicked." However, it could just be a spontaneous eruption of visible evil a la "Ghostbusters 2."

It could be the city's visible display of their commitment to more environmentally conscious practices, shown here by wasting a lot of energy created by coal and petroleum burning plants.
Perhaps related to the evil re-design of the SF Chron? I like to be constructive in my criticism and supportive of my profession, but with this I don't know where to begin. It looks like a huge version of one of those clumsy info-mercial ads. (I know, I know.) They must have searched far and wide to find someone so insensitive to letterforms. It is painful to behold. A subversive attempt to get all subscriptions cancelled, deflect all newsstand sales and go 100% on line?
Dear ellen: Haven't seen the new Chronicle design yet but I'll trust your professional graphics judgment completely. Can't wait to see the disaster for myself.
Trust me, the new Chronicle is a design disaster. It looks worse than the newspaper that I worked for back in the 60's, in high school, in Florida no less. What ARE they thinking?
