So what? Doesn't Linda live in the area? This sounds like control freak

Perhaps Herron can speak for himself here. Or are you his spokesperson,
Wizard?

Well, ok, then set this rumor to rest, Wizard--do you have some facts that
show this isn't accurate? Let's get to the bottom of this. Karen was
asking some questions.

But I thought you just said that Linda Wejcman shouldn't have been setting
up a meeting with the American Inn to find out more about the plans. Now
you are saying Council Members should stay out of neighborhood organization
business.... So who should we call to find out about this Wizard? That
CNIA number that has a constantly full voice mail box?
