tnwrangler...anybody can tell from the way I write that I'm not 10. And anybody can tell from your postings that you are impulsive and not too thoughtful or rational in your comments.

Sometimes it's necessary to make short-term investments for long-term rewards. I think I agreed with you in my previous post that we've made some bad investments...ones that didn't bring the local economy a positve return. You, however, make generalizations that you can't back up with any data whatsoever. How can you possibly know conclusively whether a 1,000 room hotel could be profitable? Have you done any market studies?

And the Pyramid...have you performed an economic assessment of that building? Do you have the numbers to support that it did not, in fact, return more than its $60 million cost to the local economy during its 13-year life as a sports venue?

You are too consumed with negativity about this city to be of any value in a debate.
