in apts. downtown park for days on end in the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">jackson</st1:place></st1:City> st. lot and still spare spaces.
N.S.A. students come & go as well as shop downtown. The only time parking
seems to be difficult is at times N.S.A. is not in session--farmers market
& after 5:00 etc.<br>
<br>
Error number two would be that I am not the owner of the Lock Shop. I am but
the lowly cook & bottle washer, But thanks for the promotion(aww and you
pretend that ya don't like me)<br>
<br>
Error number three. Faulty comparisons. "Third Street Mall" parking
lot is private property. <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Jackson</st1:place></st1:City>
st. is public. Co-Op customers parked in front of my place of employment all
the time, as was their right. There are no signs advising customers of the
shopping center not too. The Co-Op was, all in all, a good neighbor and while
parking was sometimes tight, we did O.K. I expect it will be the same with our
new tennants.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=3

Sirrah,<br>
<br>
As long as we're counting errors, tenants is spelled tenants, not tennants. The
latter is a kind of beer, and not a very good beer at that. I'm also wondering
why a lock shop would require a cook and bottle washer. Perhaps a key polisher
would be more apt? <br>
<br>
Here's the poop, Scoop -- the Moscow Hotel pays property taxes. Lots of
property taxes. So, too, do the many retail businesses located in the CBD.
Until very recently, NSA was tax-exempt. If they win their appeal before the
IBTA, they will be tax-exempt once more. They have in the past and may in the
future pay absolutely nothing in the way of support for the <st1:Street w:st="on"><st1:address
w:st="on">Jackson Street</st1:address></st1:Street> public parking lot. This
ticks me off. This gets my goat. This is unacceptable to me. If NSA were
selling something other than recycled pap from old Thomas L. Dixon novels,
perhaps they might be reclassified as a business rather than a college. But
they're not, and so they are in violation of city ordinance. Again I ask, why
should NSA expect special treatment? Why should the City of <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Moscow</st1:place></st1:City> rewrite zoning code to fit the needs
of the one and only illegal occupant of the CBD at the expense of all of the
legal occupants?<br>
<br>
Either you can't answer that, Gee Crabtree, or you won't. Unlike Tom, I don't
expect an answer; that's because I don't think you have one.<br>

PS: I'm not pretending to dislike you. I do dislike you. I wouldn't use the
Lock Shop if I were shut out of my own underwear. What I'd do is call <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Christ</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Church</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>
and ask them to loan me their safecracker. (Re: <st1:PersonName w:st="on">Vera
White</st1:PersonName>'s column of December 9th.) Just out of curiosity, I
wonder why Doug thought there might be a safecracker in his congregation? I
don't doubt that there are plenty of crackers in the Kirk, but are any of them
safe? <br>
