Q':

1.  You need the 5th floor to make a profit.  How much of a profit?  There would be NO profit for you otherwise?

 I've lived here for 48 years and around 1980+ you all started moving here.  Then you had to have the same 'stuff' so more commerical came.  Then some of you big fish in a little pond got involved in our politics.  Rules we Oregonians had in place for many years to protect us from all of this 'stuff'...gone. 

 It wasn't in your new backyard.  It's mighty hard not to go all out and laugh out loud at your protests now.  Now I've seen traffic blocked for hours due to too many cars.  I hate density.  I LOVE my little backyard......outside of Lane county......reading your frustration that I've lived w/now for too long.  

But, I'm not like that.  Good luck fighting progress (to use your own words) said back to me years ago  L2G
