		<description><![CDATA[Al, you did it! Thank you so much. Especially the item &quot;Peeling the Onion,&quot; that one was definitely one of the stand-outs of the year. It gets so difficult to track this sort of thing after a year filled with so many topics. Can&#039;t thank you enough for making this a far easier task than it would have been with me reading through a year of what I&#039;ve written!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Unfulfilled Dreams and Questioned Motives: 
http://blog.newsok.com/okccentral/2011/11/09/unfulfilled-dreams-and-questioned-motives/
Great write-up on what&#039;s become a wart on Bricktown, an empty lot of squandered opportunity amidst ridiculous plans of impractical grandeur.  The &quot;Staring Down the 800 Pound Elephant in the Room&quot; two parter is similar but this specific property is a microcosm of the larger picture.

I would recommend the Peeling the Onion article as my second favorite, but I&#039;d like to go a different direction for my second nomination, and that&#039;s all the historic preservation work that you highlight.  I loved the post:  Downtown Brainstorming: Hotel Marion at http://blog.newsok.com/okccentral/2011/08/23/downtown-brainstorming-hotel-marion/]]></description>
