[Vision2020] And Now for Something a Little Different

[Donovan Arnold]

I know UI has underground tunnels underneath it. I don't know about downtown though. But what would be the point, I mean, it is only one mile from one end of downtown to the other. 

Best Regards,

Donovan

I'd also be interested in a little documentation on 
these "underground tunnels through downtown Moscow" When, from where to where, 
and why?

  Name one "underground" newspaper from the "sixties" based in this 
  area...

  What 
    an interesting job! It might actually be fun to look at 
    Moscow's
historical porn industry---heaven knows we have other oddities 
    in our
history (Frank Robinson ring a bell? How's about those underground 
    tunnels
through downtown? What about the underground newspapers in the 
    sixties? The
subversive meetings of the MOLES? religious schisms and 
    flame wars?).
Perhaps it is a book. "The Weird History and Current 
    Conditions of  a Small
Idaho Town". We certainly have enough 
    local chatracters and color to do it.
And, by the way, Joan Opyr's new 
    book, From Hell to Breakfast, is now out!!!
Yahoo--the adventure 
    continues!
