Some things in life are predictable.  One is that some posters will launch ad hominem attacks rather than address the contents of a letter.  Ms. Lovinger presents her views on the McDougal development.  I happen to agree with her that the extraction/development project is motivated by narrow self-interest in short-term profit..and, yes, greed describes that interest.  Those who disagree might make the argument that a) the project is a "good" thing for the neighborhood, the environment, the community and the economy;  or perhaps b) that it's none of Ms Lovinger's business what the McDougals do...that members of the community should "mind their own business" and let folks like the McDougals do as they please. Either position could advance a civil conversation regarding the project.

 Instead they "cheap shot" Ms Lovinger.....nice goin' guys.   Gary Crum
