I hear so many worries about these "outsiders" coming to the squares and it made me think; tonight we Villagers were good neighbors encouraging families to come. I was very proud of the venue we provided. Perhaps we need to be good neighbors more often and the "outsiders" will reciprocate by being good neighbors to us Villagers.
perrjojo: Thursday night was my first time at Brownwood. I listened as one of the people in our group made mention that people currently moving in are all busy trying to out do one another and referenced them as elitists. They asked what I thought about this information and I said, if true then from an economic standpoint I am all for it because the more they pay for their homes the higher in value mine will rise. Personally, I am anti-elitist and have always been accessible to others. I therefore find it unfortunate that you seem to find the need to separate groups by terms of outsiders"
vis a vis "we villagers were good neighbors" How with such a bias can you determine if perhaps those outsiders are also good neighbors?
