If you moved to Moscow before you were 5 years old your an <br>>"old timer." Everyone else is a jonney come lately. Growing up in a place <br>>gives a person a certain perspective. When you have seen the big, bad <br>>Safeway store move to town and displace the various ma & pa markets that <br>>were the order of the day back then, you will have a reference point for <br>>development in Moscow.<br>><br>>g.crabtree<br>> ----- Original Message -----<br>> From: Ted Moffett<br>> To: Area Man (Dan C)<br>> Cc: vision2020<br>> Sent: Thursday, January 12, 2006 12:39 AM<br>> Subject: Re: [Vision2020]Who's most vocal?

<br>>considered an "old timer," in your opinion? I guess you think 20 years is <br>>not enough? Then is it 30, 40, 50 years?<br>><br>> Do you really think the "transplants" are chasing the "old timers" out <br>>of town? That's a strong statement. I think some accurate facts are <br>>needed to back that up. I don't think many "transplants" would like this <br>>view of their impact.<br>><br>> It would be interesting to attempt to survey the "transplants" to really <br>>find out if they think development in the Moscow area is too much or OK. I <br>>know people who are new to the area who think that those who complain about <br>>the increase in traffic, etc. to be laughable, when they compare Moscow to <br>>Boston, etc. It's a relative issue, I guess. I can compare Moscow's <br>>current traffic to 1965 when I first walked the streets of this "little" <br>>town, and I personally don't like the increase in traffic, among oth!
er
<br>>changes growth is bringing.<br>><br>> I like to joke with a friend of mine in Boise that I am going to move to <br>>Boise to escape all the traffic up here! But really I am not totally <br>>joking. I expect traffic and big development in Boise, but I have no <br>>reference point for how Boise was 50 years ago, or not a very personal <br>>heartfelt reference point. But I do have such a reference point for <br>>Moscow.<br>><br>> "All Things Must Pass," as the late great George Harrison sang on his <br>>double solo album of the same title.<br>><br>> Ted Moffett<br>><br>> On 1/9/06, Area Man (Dan C) <areaman @moscow.com=""> wrote:<br>> Ted said:<br>> "The growth in population will fuel an increasing mentality that does<br>> not even know about or care about what is being lost, when people with<br>> money move to the Palouse from much bigger uglier cities, who will <br>>think<br>> !

Yes, there are some who are vocal that have<br>> been here their entire lives, but most have not. I'm not saying that<br>> unmanaged development is good, I'm just expressing my opinion about <br>>who<br>> is most vocal about it (or anything else, for that matter). Part of<br>> that reason is that the transplants are so vocal and good at making<br>> changes that it is chasing the old timers out of town.<br>><br>> Moving to town 20 years ago doesn't make you an old timer. Definitely<br>> not an old timer like that ol' fart John Weber.<br>><br>> DC<br>><br>> !
P.S.
I like John, it's just been a few months since the campaign, and<br>> he probably misses me poking fun at him.
