And three cheers to David and Robert for putting RTCP together and doing all they are doing to help make College Park a great town. Kevin, I also like your description of what you'd like to see Guilford Run become, I hope it happens. I LOVE College Park, but I agree there is certainly lots of room for improvement. Just hope Rte 1 doesn't become another Rockville Pike and East Campus is not a duplicate of downtown Silver Spring, the University can do better than that. “we have the opportunity to be one of the coolest inner beltway communities”

It’s a sign of Internet success. plus - as they say in TV and radio - "its good for ratings" - look how much activity and dialogue this thread generated (curious to know the number of hits).....I still think the Rosie-Trump thing is completely engineered for ratings and exposure. out of respect for David and company and the excellent work they are doing to help the community through this site/forum my demeanor will change. my views and over the top passion for improving the city will not. we have the opportunity to be one of the coolest inner beltway communities.

If folks continue to attack eachother rather than deal with the issues at hand, we will be forced to start approving every comment again. This is getting absolutely ridiculous and I won't let a handful of people harm the real focus of this site.
