So dependable. We knew it was Uhler without reading the letter writer's name. His style is one of histrionics couched in stale rhetoric splayed in his reactionary knee jerk response to any notion regarding even thinking about improving our island.

He is chumming the waters for the usual suspects of nay-sayers, curmudgeons, and hate mongers. Denouncing any potential improvement discussions with hyperbole as though those proposing them were terrorists attempting to overthrow the island.

Using his accustomed technique of boldly lying e.g. "It mandates newly increased population density credits" where no such thing has occurred. (Like a delinquent in movie theater yelling "Fire" to watch the melee that ensues).

It is ignorant to prevent discussion. It is ignorant to cling to cliches and damaging to foist them as truisms, especially as sport.

"decibel-piercing saloons" Really?

Let's explore the ideas of potential improvements and enjoy the mental exercise of sharing ideas in the common good. The world moves on in spite of those who would keep all progress from even being conceptualized.
