But it is no Main Street.

I knew Main Street, and you transportation hub, are no Main Street USA.

Transprotation Hub, the Dan Quale of palcemaking projects.

Haha. Most people who like to make fun of Dan do so in rememberance of his inability to spell potato.

Hahahaha.

Oh, BTW... It's spelled "Quayle."

Ain't irony grand?

I'm sure the reason is more financial than anything else. If new attractions end up boosting DCA's attendance, I fear the Placemaking projects will never see the light of day.

My understanding is that the Paradise Pier Placemaking Project will be extensive with new skins for the buildings and a major upgrade to the whole area.

I hope that's true, because that'll be really good.

Actually allot. You don't know the state of mind they are in, the emotions they are experiencing or what their lives consist of. It's the same as thinking that after a couple years of posting on a discussion form such as this, that an individual has a good understanding of the person behind the computer. It is only one source of input to learn about that person and as such, you will only see one side of that individual. It's not nearly enough to create an informed or thought out conclusion. Judging people based on their actions is fine, but the real stories and information on that person come from how they came to those conclusions. It's analyzing the cause rather than the effect.

No one is simply "bad", everyone is a composition of various things. I think calling someone "bad" over simplifying matters. In regards to Al, you can judge him based on the way he writes articles, but you only have one sorce of input to learn about the individual. You can say you dislike him as a journalist, but calling him bad in general simple based on his articles is forming an unjustified opinion (not saying you are).

That being said, I was just making a general comment earlier and for the most find this group find this group people to very well mannered and have some great though out posts.

actually this works out perfectly,because (correct me if I am wrong) CA Screamin' is already scheduled for a rehab this Sept.So they can shut Screamin down,rehab it,do thier palcemaking and start the new ride.I think this will work out nicely.

kudos to Ouimet. (see I can give credit to him when I think he deserves it)
