They are about to start the close down of the 405 right now. I think it is overhyped but we shall see.

'
That big blank space between the two "gaybourhoods" is Griffith Park, isn't it?
When I was a kid, I went to the Planetarium there many times. Foucault's Pendulum, enormous impressive (and harmless) electrical displays, learning the true scale of the solar system and the universe, the planetarium shows themselves. With some saved up money, I bought a book (The Conquest of Space, I think) by Wiley Ley, paintings by Chestley Bonstell. I wanted so much to understand it, but I couldn't. I was really disappointed, thought I must be really stupid, and threw it in a corner. Six months or a year later, I tried again, and to my amazement I found that it very easy to understand. That impressed me, and in later life I have told the story to many discouraged yougsters, so that they would understand that they should never think that they are stupid, because apparent stupidity is just a matter of the brain not having matured. They just have to wait a while, and new abilities will come all by themselves.

Yes that is Griffith Park. Nice story Numan.
A note about the map, it might not be clear but there are several areas that have significant gay populations around the city.
