True, but so would, say, a casino, or a strip club. Just because money's coming into the city doesn't necessarily mean there's a net positive here. We need to get a little more out of the deal than we're getting. I think in exchange for letting the Hack folks block off our streets and wake us up in the middle of the night, we should all get to use their giant bathroom trucks. Those bathrooms are palatial, and they assuredly have better water pressure than my lackluster shower. -- Matthew Snyder Philadelphia, PA ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
