in response to: The Destruction of Benny Farm by EvilGentleman

Elicar: EvilG, please explain why it would be a "destruction". Wouldn't be more appropriate to use "restoration", "resurrection". "refurbishment", etc.? In my mind, destruction is putting something out of commission, making something unusable. This is just......
