It must really bother you that people still believe the Sam Adams is an intelligent, talented and capable man who will be an excellent mayor. My guess is that you didn't vote for him in the first place and would not have supported him under any circumstances.

The conversation is finally going in a reasonable direction!. The choice shouldn't be: expand and devour the agricultural lands that we need to feed us and the green space that makes us all want to live here, or: in-fill and tear out the trees and yards that make a neighborhood livable, build in the back yard and cram in as many people as possible. Why can't we limit the in-migration of the one million new people we are "expecting"? I may sound like an old hippie, but what happened to Zero Population Growth?
