Raymond Kappe was the keynote speaker at the American Institute of Architect's Convention in San Diego, CA, in 1977; "'We acknowledge human diversity,' Kappe said. 'We have given up the master builder image thrust upon us by the fathers of the modern movement.' Himself looking to the future, Kappe said, 'The tremendous technological advances envisioned a few short years ago and the Space Age future will probably have to wait until at least the year 2000 while we devote ourselves to the crisis at hand in our cities and our countryside."
