[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]rather confused about all the fuss over saving the mud puddle trolley path.[/quote]

As was everyone else in the neighborhood . . . As far as I can tell, it was all started by a half dozen people who live on the northwest side of Sherier Place and view the trail as part of their own backyard. They didn't want the renovations of course because then there would be more people traipsing through what they think is their backyard, many even - shock horror - a few of those heathens who hail from the untamed lands of southeast of Foundry Branch. They must have had a few lobbyists in their ranks because they then crafted the most ridiculous arguments about "paving paradise" that made it sound like the renovation was the second coming of the Three Sisters Bridge. Their neighbors, being the gullible folk that they are, bought this crap hook, line, and sinker and the "Save Don't Pave" movement was born. Much like the FCCA's efforts to get Old Hardy designated as a historical building to prevent it being converted back into a public school, the whole neighborhood will suffer for years as a direct result of their NIMBY crap.[/quote]
