Mr. Morse's offer was exceedingly generous, and follows the occasional pattern of the family. PALMS' response may have been a tad more "Thanks, but No Thanks" in tone than I would have suggested, but I must admit to being in general agreement.

I am frankly very much hopeful that we'll end up with a strictly purpose-built top-of-the-line theatre, with easy access and good parking, comfortable seating, an orchestra pit, superior lighting system, dressing rooms - indeed, an acknowledged first class venue. Despite all the best efforts of the folks at PALMS, I am sorry to say that I do not expect to see it in my lifetime.

Major reason: too much money to build, equip and maintain over the long haul! Now, should I ever win the Power Ball, maybe I could help out!
