<DIV>Hold on now. So you consider it a "fact" that Pete wouldn't want a 5 story
condo built a block and a half from his house, because YOU are SURE of it?!?
</DIV>
<DIV>I'm sorry but that's pure speculation on your part and is therefore NOT a
"fact" by definition. You're simply putting words into his mouth and recklessly
posting it on this message board as fact. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please justify your statement that it is fact.</DIV>

<DIV>Life styles? LOL give me a break. Do I detect a little bitterness? Do you
expect something in return from the many corporations whose life styles you fund
every single day, too? Pete is probably the most "stand up for the community"
business man this town could hope for. They don't make 'em like this anymore
gang. Seriously. This community is fortunate to have Pete and Sons. Stop kidding
yourselves. They could have picked up and moved on a long time ago. Then what
would we have. This is a classic case of not realizing what you've got.</DIV>
