Index of SPPS Budget Discussion http://www.e-democracy.org/stpaul/spps-posts.html _________________________________________ I agree with Bruce. A person's fear of something may be rational fear or irrational fear. A child who is afraid of the monsters in the closet is a case of irrational fears. A child who becomes afraid because his brother attempts to make him afraid, may be a rational fear to him but to adults it may seem irrational. I used to live in the Daytons Bluff area. In my neighborhood there were crack houses, alleged sexual activity with minor girls, there were periodic gun shots. Yet women and girls felt safe enough to walk home from babysitting or one of the local bars at 1:00 in the morning. Yet when I marred and moved my new wife into my house, she looked for every statistic she could find to prove this was an unsafe neighborhood. So we moved to our current location. What has happened here? We have had five bikes stolen. Two out of a garage, one a tuck under. one taken from the back patio inside a fenced yard. Michael Fratto Payne Phalen

I go to Arnellia's. I take my wife. We are not afraid of going there. I have never felt like a target. Someone was shot 3 blocks from my house. I still walk that corner. It would be stupid of me to be afraid of ever place where something bad happens. I would certainly not enter the capitol or city hall. Arnellia's has great music and should be visited. _____________________________________________ SPPS Budget Reduction Forum - Feb. 23-27 Co-Sponsored By NEAT: http://www.stpaulneat.org/ _____________________________________________ NEW ADDRESS FOR LIST: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, modify subscription, or get your password - visit: http://www.mnforum.org/mailman/listinfo/stpaul Archive Address: http://www.mnforum.org/mailman/private/stpaul/
