[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The opponents of GDS's new campus[/b] are like the woman on Capitol Hill who spends 20 hours a week harassing her neighbor because their tree house extends 20 inches into the public airspace above the alley.  They simply won't go away. Some are normally very nice people, some are NIMBYs, some are anti-private schools, some are just batty.  They clearly have nothing better to do and feel especially motivated to bash away at GDS. Luckily, public officials are used to the very small number of folks who find meaning in their lives through extreme arguments against private development and how other people use their own money and property. If they ever amounted to more than a handful, we'd have had a Trotsky-ite paradise long ago. So let them rant...Don't engage them any more...let this thread die.[/quote]

I am sure that there are some folks who still may have some issues with GDS's new campus plan, but not that many especially as the school works through issues like traffic, parking, etc.  However, there are a great many  people who have serious concerns with the scope and scale of the commercial development that GDS is fronting for.  The projects and the issues are very separate and it is disingenuous to conflate them.
