To do that you have to ask questions. <BR/><BR/>I wasn't able to listen until your last hour on air today but you did an excellent job in covering the information and had some very good callers. I hope people do show up for the public meetings on the arena, maybe Russ will actually attend one...<BR/><BR/>:-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00606533906583651054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-1155507298030225392006-08-13T18:14:00.000-04:002006-08-13T18:14:00.000-04:00Maggie, I was truly amused at Russ' column.His col...Maggie, <BR/><BR/>I was <I>truly</I> amused at Russ' column.<BR/><BR/>His column today is just another example of his ineptness to follow up with facts. It's been widely read throughout Toledo's blogworld your stance on the Arena issue. If I recall, you also had the Arena issue on your fill-in spot on WSPD, something I would figure Russ would have been paying attention to, seeing what his claim to fame at the Blade is.<BR/><BR/> I listened to your concerns and it was pretty clear there of how you felt. How Russ missed that is beyond me. I guess Russ really isn't as informed as he claims to be.<BR/><BR/>I also consider the source and how Russ got his fleas.Brian Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090533002615910396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-1155493151873084172006-08-13T14:19:00.000-04:002006-08-13T14:19:00.000-04:00do - thanks...As I've said elsewhere, too many peo...do - thanks...As I've said elsewhere, too many people in the past have operated on optimism to the exclusion of sound fiscal policy. I believe the two need to be balanced so you get a good project that is supported by the fiscal plan.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677808307727487766noreply@blogger.com
