That suggests you don't understand what the terms mean. The fault is on me.

Normative is "what should be." Positive is "what is." When talking about making new boundaries, it's clearly normative considerations that matter. [/quote]

WOW.

I understand you are not very nice. That I get. Thanks for making that crystal clear.[/quote]

Am I supposed to recognize "whatever" as an attempt at serious dialogue?

Do you understand that I'm not very nice? Really, you managed to get that from a few posts in an online forum? Then you truly are a better person than me. I try (not always successfully) withhold judgement about people's character and intent until I have a more intimate relationship with them. I also value serious, engaged, intellectual discourse regardless of whether I "win" the argument. I don't just put my hands over my ears.

NP here. Sorry, but it's hard to take your "serious, engaged, intellectual discourse" seriously when you're talking about Wisconsin Avenue like it's a freeway. Insulting other people's intelligence doesn't help much either.[/quote]

PP, you're an ass. Wisconsin ave, at the Chesapeake Street crossing has no light--but yes, it has a cross walk. It is a dicey crossing, even for middle schoolers--cars come flying down Wisc at upwards of 50mph at rush hour. They're speeding, of course, but just don't care. There is no way I would let my elementary aged children cross at that street alone. We're on the west side of Wisc and my 4 kids have been able to walk to Janney on their own, since they were in second grade. [b]It was the number 1 factor in why we bought in this neighborhood--and we pay enormously for this convenience[/b].[/quote]

LOL like there is some kind of price discount offered for those that live on the east side of Wisconsin Ave.[/quote]
