Mr. London,

Did I hear you say "a less legalistic definition of the downtown"? I
take it that you get to provide the definition to suit your point - like
residential areas 4-5 blocks off Main St.?

I've spent my entire professional career watching people select data as
they wanted to suit their position. And you certainly do this practice
justice. As for your "consistent support" - I must have missed this
during my years of involvement with Pacific Simulation, Alturas, and the
EDC. In all this time - no matter what the issue - I have not seen
anything but criticism using misrepresentation of the facts.

I don't have anything against opposing views. This is what moves the
process along. But until the day I die, twisting facts like this will
light a fire in my gut.

Bill Strand
