Regarding Dave Rawson's comment that the current creator should not be
constrained by a previously defined setting: I agree, totally. Whatever is
required for the story being created should be available (so long as it does
not make the characters in their milieu unrecogniseable). The creative spirit
is restrained when the "creator" is slavishly constrained to only a defined
closed set of tools and rules. I was only making the point that a different-
looking bridge was likely to have been a different bridge (with historical
precedent for the likelihood of the different bridges existing). I believe
there is room for many artists changing Duckburg from story to story, as needed
for innovation; as well as room for others to keep their Duckburgs consistant
within the universe they have chosen for the stories they create. - Rob
