Right or Wrong?

So I emailed a number of people about the 'debate' regarding some of my Albany observations to ask them if I was right or wrong?

By far, the most responded to email since I've been doing this in 16 years.

But more than what I learned about the specific example is the fascinating study in human psychology.

Answers (comments, emails, phone, and in-person) ranged from "you are an insensitive brute" to "this is why I HATE people...get over yourself" and everything in between.

It's like I was in a college classroom and the ideas and debate were just flowing.

That, to me, has been the most enriching part of this entire process. Just incredible.
