People generally try to come up with explanations for things that don't
make sense. I think it's just the way the human mind works. And recently,
city government actions that don't make sense seem to be focussed on the
neighborhoods of proposed light rail stops. (Hard Times, Hi-Lake, now Many
Rivers). That may be just a coincidence, except for the Hi-Lake stuff
which obviously is connected to LRT. But the more time passes, the more
I'm glad I don't live along the light rail route.
