[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] P.S. We're not slated for W-L, but I find the Boomers to be unspeakably selfish. They want increased tax abatement, while they're sitting on hundreds of thousands in real estate equity. [/quote] I think it's a mistake to think that one generation or another has cornered the market on selfishness. I think boomers would be happy to pay for schools that look like the ones they attended -- some classrooms, labs, a library, a theater, a gym or two. But sheesh, W-L didn't even have a cafeteria until 1984, according to wikipedia. Can you see how cybercafes and atriums and six foreign languages might seem a little excessive to a 70-something, even if you think all those things are a worth it? I hear parents complaining about who has the nicer building and how they can't possibly let their kids walk to school, and it's hard to think that Boomers have cornered the market on whining.[/quote]
