	The Future of Scotland’s Architecture, Conservation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		According to architect James Simpson, Historic Scotland is staffed by "busy functionaries with strong opinions" who showed "arrogance, presumptiveness and a lack of respect for the views of outsiders".
		Architects, as Simpson said, "like to be at the best parties" and want to build in the most desirable places.
		As a result, architects were "forced to drop contemporary ideas", and he warned that Scotland would be seen as "a nerveless country" if all it did was preserve the past.
