With 80,000 plus population, this thread (and others) reminded me of:
"You can please all of the people all of the time or some of the people part of the time,but you can't
please all of the people all of the time." John Lydate, poet

Abraham Lincoln has been incorrectly attributed to this quote, but DID say something similar. Exchange the word "fool" where ever
you see "please" in this quote and now you have the original quote by Lincoln:

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time"
