Hi, Guy. I find all this negativism annoying too,

practical thinking.
I think your idea is great, and thinking about it with
some good business heads could be very beneficial for
University City
Remember, though, about the proposed NID: it was intended
to extend UCD's current services (let's call them "John
Fenton" as a kind of discussion shorthand). The original
"John Fenton" was to continue being funded by UCD's
current major backers -- Penn, Drexel, large real estate
firms.
If we are talking about a service entity that does
roughly what UCD does, it's going to cost something like
what UCD now costs. That cost is currently derived from
millions of dollars from major donors. So let us be
terribly clear:
see, this kind of shorthand is misleading. it leaves out the
fact that ucd claims to do more than just 'john fenton'
services. ucd also: markets us, brands us, kicks businesses
out and installs others, programs our entertainments,
occupies our public spaces, populates our public buildings,
puts their agendas into our neighborhood associations, steps
between our relationship with our elected governing
mechanisms, etc. etc.
