This is a sad story, but I think that Larry Falcon has a slight axe to 
grind with UPENN. One thing-- if the guards let them up, why were they 
arrested? It sounds like the guards _didn't_ let them up, and then they 
were in fact tresspassing.

I can only imagine what WPhilly would be like if UPENN were not here. Sure, 
they do a lot of shady things, but would you really have them not 
interested in the neighborhood at all?

What are your property values today?
