[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last 4 PPs - I'm reporting you for being WAY too reasonable to be posting on DCUM.

Also, to OP: these four posters are symbolic of the attitude of people living in Silver Spring and sending their kids to the local schools - laid back, able to communicate well, reasonable, likable. If these characteristics are what you're looking for in a community, you'll find them in ample supply here.[/quote]

Dunno.  I think the argument that people only avoid certain schools because they want to justify their purchase of more expensive homes[b] is about as lacking in originality as you can get on DCUM.  [/quote]

Good thing that nobody's saying that, then.

The argument is that some people paid a large premium so that they could send their childrern to these schools, over here, which are supposed to be good, instead of spending less money to send their children to those schools, over there, which are supposed to be bad. If it turns out that those schools, over there, are actually also good, then they wasted their money, and they might not be able to sell their house to somebody who is also willing to pay a large premium. So it's in their interest for everybody to keep believing that those schools, over there, are bad.

(Also, an argument can be unoriginal and also valid.)[/quote]
