I'm totally opposed to this high-density situation that is invading the atmosphere of the community.

The farming community always heard China would need a lot of our corn, but now I'm not sure that's going to happen. They seem to be very self-sufficient.

We were visited by whites, who always found coming into the black community to be interesting. Some even found it exotic. They knew that some of our restaurants were superior to their own. One of the interesting things is that whites discriminated against blacks. Blacks never discriminated against whites, and so they were always welcome.

We get pushed very hard by our development community in this area but we think that we're just scratching the surface with what can be built. The overall business benefit is around linking projects more closely together and allowing people to move around information a lot more intelligently.

I think this is going to be an extremely enjoyable event and something totally different for our community.

Obviously, the Council had their concerns, and obviously, we didn't just want to invalidate the concerns of the community. So we took that information to heart, and I think we've got a great kind of middle ground now.
