Sorry Jason but I for one am not going to back off this fight. And yes it is a fight with the very people who are supposed to be preserving and protecting the RR as a historic property, namely the Friends. All we want is some straight answers to the site selection critiera. That is not second guessing, it is called doing due diligence. If the work has been done then the Friends task force should have no problem presenting the facts for all to see how the selection was arrived at. To not question and just bury our collective heads in the sand and except the spin the Friends are putting on this project is a disservice to RR, the town, the employees and to future generations who this facility will serve.
