I edited the passages about the heat from the polished steel, it now better explains the problems.  My source was a History Channel Modern Marvels: Engineering disasters episode so I don't know how to source it.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg (talk) 04:10, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I found a reference to a paper by the engineers who analyzed the problem and recommended fixes.  --Sommerfeld 17:33, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm no architecture expert, but this does bear a striking resemblance to the Imperial War Museum North in Salford (Manchester, UK). Whether or not there are any solid connections between the buildings, I think a link to the Museum would be relevant for anybody interested in the design.

message: With all the praise given to the acoustical quality, the article really needs to tell us who was the sound engineer who designed the acoustics. Does anybody know? I remember that he was Japanese.  --MiguelMunoz (talk) 07:58, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Acoustic Design 

message: It is amazing that a whole section of this article is dedicated to whatever trashy pop associations may be visited on this wholly undistinguished piece of corporate power architechture, but nothing is said of either the inaugural concerts by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, or of the orchestra's relationship to an acoustically mediocre and esthetically uninspiring venue.

Christ!  Definately one for the arty farties.  It is a political statement as it hates the traditional
Gehry designs rubbish!  And ugly rubbish at that  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Amband (talk • contribs) 08:44, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  rubbish! 

message: The omission of the architect from this main-page feature is a reflection of the way in which the designer is/was treated in the Introduction of this article. 
*Introducing the architect's name in a sentence beginning "The Frank Gehry-designed building....  is just plain rude. His name belongs in the first sentence. 
*Never reduce a designer to a mere adjective when you are writing the introduction on the subject of their work.  
:The adjectival use is acceptable when the architect/artist's name is given already, or a comparison if being made between similar works by different artists, e.g. The Wren church has a recessed portal while the Hawksmoor church has a Classical portico. 
:It is also acceptable when the artist's name has become linked to a product e.g. "The window includes different types of Tiffany glass" as against "The window was designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany".
*The name of Yasuhisa Toyota, the designer of the acoustics, doesn't belong in brackets as if its inclusion is an after-thought.
