		<description><![CDATA[Almost to the end. I&#8217;m allowing myself a closing argument. Flint has been in decline since before I was born, and very soon almost the entirety of its residents will only remember the city&#8217;s downfall. In the last fifty years, the population has halved, and Flint has gone from an expansionist vision of a future [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have no idea why this space is configured this way; it&#8217;s located flush to the east side of the fourth floor of the main building, and a ladder adjacent to the entry runs up to the roof. The floorboards on the paths running around this space are rickety and not to be trusted. The [...]]]></description>

Continuing on: It&#8217;s the Liberty Bell! To the balcony&#8230; A better view of the theater. The main entrance&#8230; they don&#8217;t make these like they used to. And then [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think that for many of us the lyrics to Soothe by the Smashing Pumpkins represents the possibility, if not the ideal, of what we can realistically hope for when it comes to dealing with ugly situations in the past and present. Look at these words as applying not to a person, but to an [...]]]></description>

All of those parade scenes you&#8217;ve seen in movies; the march through the Loop [...]]]></description>

On reaching a distance at which the light troops could engage, the two armies raised a great shout [...]]]></description>
