[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by wallyworld it's amazing how many issues can be piled onto this project. . [/quote] That's just human nature, everybody does it. As another abstract parallel, if a quiet little bar suddenly starts having live bands and dancing and becomes a real hot spot, with a 20 fold increase in customers at all hours, the neighbors can't very well say they didn't know they were moving in next to a bar when they first moved in, but if they find the increase in business to be annoying, You can bet they will try to 'fight back' with any resource available to them. Fire code and occupancy restrictions, zoning and parking availability regulations, common nusiance laws, you name it. Happens all the time. Here, with DM&E/Rochester, the muck throwing is just happening before the fact. When you really look at it, the folks who are protesting on behalf of the railroad are being just as "NIMBYish" (how DARE the city try to tell us how to run our railroad) as the people they are fighting against. That has been a source of amusement for me since this thread started. [(-D][(-D][(-D]
