"In the middle distance, check out the new playground for this
Coatesville, PA, conventional apartment 'complex.' In perfect conformity with
our knucklehead zoning laws, the playground occupies its own separate pod so as
not to 'contaminate' the other 'activities' in the 'complex' with 'undesirable'
byproducts -- i.e. the squeals of children at play. I like to imagine the
attached parking lot implies that children will drive to the 'facility'
themselves. But of course, the truth is that Mom will drive them there. Since
they won't be walking, the tots will have to play extra-hard on the jungle gym
to work off the calories from those super-sized Happy Meals they get off-site in
the nearby fried food ghetto."

You are just not a very happy person, are you, John? and not the least bit
excepting of others, as Liberals profess to be. I guess the Liberal tent isn't
as big as they would like everyone to believe it is..I'm here to help and serve
just like your local Police, I'll do my best to keep you on the straight and
narrow, I'm sure you have good intentions all be them misguided, don't worry
you'll grow up mentally "some day"..

Considering there's a fire hydrant in the foreground and what appears to be a
freshly seeded lawn to the lesft, there is more than likely an apartment bulding
or "soon-to-be" bulding just out of site. There may be another
playground down the street, around the corner that is out of view of the
picture. Remember John, things aren't always what they appear; especially when
it's a point trying to be made by one "Sandy Sorlien of Philadelphia's
University of the Arts", that title just screams "LIBERAL
AGENDA!!!". Also as far as living there, I wouldn't live in Pennsylvania
period.

"liberal agenda" ?? What is that again? This whole 'apartment
complex' is based on the idea that we will have cheap oil forever. Guess what!
The world will probably reach peak oil (50% of all oil used up) within 5 years.
After that point, gas will never be cheaper ever again. And stupid un-walkable
suburb-hell-zones like this one will become the prison's that small children
already think they are.
