It seems we have not learned our lessons from "The Great White Flight" to the suburbs since the 50's and 60's. Jobs are moving to larger cities, gas continues to be a concern, we need to bolster our infrastructure to bring in new business and tourism. We cannot keep running away from our problems. If you want things to change, be a force of change, get involved! The very elements you try to get away from just follow you anyway. Do you enjoy sitting in traffic jams at Military Cut-off Road as much as Downtown? And last I looked, there are an awful lot of empty windows and businesses going under in Mayfaire and the shopping centers across the street! Lose the rose-colored glasses and see the real world!
