I cannot disagree with you. Wouldn't we all? However, it does a community no good to ignore concerns from some of its citizens, rather than make those citizens feel validated by hearing them.
It has been the modus operandi of this community to go from neighborhood crisis to crisis and flare-up to flare-up, rather than acknowledge and/or address concerns that may be unpopular or uncomfortable. Those objections or concerns fester and fester until there is an outburst or flare-up. Each flare-up or crisis hurts the community a little more each time and causes hard feelings on both sides, I believe. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. -Wilma On 5/27/03 10:43 AM, "Dan Myers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > here, here, Jeff....I would much rather focus on the positive things then > the negative. > > :) > Dan Myers > 215.901.0899 > Certified Massage Practitioner > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jeff Abrahamson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "'UCityList'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Monday, May 26, 2003 2:22 PM > Subject: Re: Opinion: RE: [UC] NEW SUBJECTS-PICK ONE (what do you dislike) > > >> On Sun, May 25, 2003 at 02:43:14PM -0400, S.
