Streszczenie
We construct a consistent example of a normal locally compact metacompact space which is not paracompact, answering a question of A. V. Arkhangel'skiĭ and F. Tall. An interplay between a tower in P(ω)/Fin, an almost disjoint family in $[ω]^ω$, and a version of an (ω,1)-morass forms the core of the proof. A part of the poset which forces the counterexample can be considered a modification of a poset due to Judah and Shelah for obtaining a Q-set by a countable support iteration.
