In my experience, most people like nice parks in their neighborhood and prefer them to shabby ones. I have actually logged hundreds of hours sitting in park space and asking people how they feel about it, so I respect my own opinion on this subject at least as much as I respect your opinion on virtual communities. There may be a hidden majority out there that quietly dislikes nice parks and wishes people would let them run down, but I doubt it.

I don't dislike Ray at all. He has just raised a very interesting issue about UCD governance that I've been trying to explore with him. It extends broadly to any kind of local service group or agency below the City level (and this is a very large city). I think it's useful to focus attention on practical issues from the beginning, to steer common inquiry away from blind alleys. Some lines of thought Ray pursues are not blind alleys.

This is another example of an area with specific boundaries that you have decided don't exist because you don't want them to exist. You've even decided that your opinion is that of "most" people in the neighborhood and you imply that those who disagree are insane. The arrogance I see in this post is incredible to me.

Is your dislike for Ray so strong that you have to resort to this? Must you respond to his every sentence with the opposite opinion? Why respond at all?
