I don't doubt this about Fairfield. But my "wager" was based more on a feeling for what this Kansas place is likely to be like. Fairfield is a dynamic college town, with necessary interaction between Ru's and townies. But doncha get the feeling that anything built in this new Kansas place is basically going to be a retreat house, where the inhabitants basically hole up and butt-bounce for peace? Or am I off in this assumption? Has there been talk of actually creating something less like a rounding course facility and more like a real-world ocmmunity? ------------------------ Yahoo!
