Larry, you're my hero.

Woa turbo - I'm pretty sure Larry said "occasional noise and traffic". I think you're making a jump from that to "property damage and related costs, adverse effects on children's behavior, sleep and learning skills, seniors and disabled on prescription drugs and and people who work varying shift work". PS Learning skills?!?!?!?

Oh somebody call the whambulance! I can't possibly bike, or walk, or take lightrail, or carpool, or take a taxi, or do anything besides drive a car to midtown. Then when I get there I have to circle in my car for ten WHOLE minutes and pay $2 dollars to park. Poor me. I might as well stay in the suburbs where there's nothing to do. Actually, yes, please do that.

The arena would have stimulated growth and the mayor did a great job trying to make that happen. What have you done recently William to stimulate the economy in such a large way?

Easy to complain about something you don't like. It's a little harder to actually put something like this on.
