Why single out Lauren? The entire block of Woodland Terr. has been
snorting fire over the 40th & Pine project, quite publicly. Petitions,
the works.
In petitioning a government, there's a distinction to be drawn between a
simple, sound suggestion that lacks outspoken opposition, and opposing
arguments on a complex issue, both made with comparable craft. A single
citizen's voice is often incorporated by government planners in the
first situation. The latter case becomes a balancing act, because good
governments are under pressure to at least look like they'll listen to
both sides.

perhaps we shall hear whether lauren wrote a letter to the
philadelphia city planning commission on behalf of woodland terrace
(or shca, or uchs for that matter) to protest the proposed hotel at
40th and pine?
