This quote shows you where Louis is at, its all about him and his community, no mention of the 18,000 Villagers affected.

Actually far mote than 18,000 people are impacted . The 18K number was just those who take courses over a fixed period of time .
It`s conceivable that 3 times that number of individuals would take 1 course or more from the Life Long Learning program over a 2 to 3 year period .
This is an extremely unfortunate and unfair loss to our community . I was a student for several courses each year and enjoyed them all very much .
I trust that the people who destroyed this major community asset are quite pleased and proud of themselves .
And I am not buying the statement from one of the major activists which was published in another forum[s] .
This is unfortunately yet another example of activism and the court system and government run amuck . It is nothing less than " Tyranny by a very small Minority " . Small in numbers and very small minded . A pure selfish act by a few of our " neighbors " .
