I cannot disagree any more. If you look at the list over the past few weeks, posts on this topic have easily dominated the board. This list is clearly VERY interested in the topic and for a variety of reasons. Disagreement is OK as long as it's not abusive. Isn't that the purpose of such a bulletin board... to discuss a mutual interest? Personally, I find it EXTREMELY interesting as a potential investor. It makes complete sense to me that as population grows, issues like this arise as the local infrasturcture must grow to cope. My interest is precisely the HOW WELL the coping is going. I don't appreciate the locals trying to conceal it. I want information with the full knowledge that it's not always good. That's life.
