btw Mr Smyth. I wasn't meaning to have a go at you. Lot's of people respond in the way you have when they want something changed.
In my experience getting advice from a user group when designing any sort of building is very very difficult. Consult people too soon and you either get nothing or far too much conflicting information. Often it's best to respond directly to the brief and then consult the user groups for feedback for the next stage of the design. Early designs often change, sometimes quite drasticly. I really don't think it's fair to be too critical of Hopkins, yet. People *always *expect designers to read their minds.
It looks as though Hopkins are at the ideal stage to take on some good quality feedback from people who will use the facility. Of course I'm only speculating from the information publicly availiable.
Un -emotive lists are a good idea.
