I hope you keep writing about this topic, because there are far too few experienced voices sounding off about this at the moment, and at a moment when when we need it most. And I'll be sure to check out that website of your son's company.John Ettorrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18229971392235689875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5274211.post-49715520239822574452010-01-01T20:34:21.728-05:002010-01-01T20:34:21.728-05:00Afi, your comment is much appreciated.

Your comments in last week's Scene [http://www.clevescene.com/cleveland/all-i-want-for-cleveland/Content?oid=1808543] highlight the problem posed by old ways of being in this community. <br />I think when the solution does come, it will come from the bottom up and not top down. There are actually lots of places around town where new energy and ideas can be discerned. A lot of it comes from transplants like you who have no emotional attachment to the old ways of doing things, and moreover, have a sense of possibility borne of having seen alternatives.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300693291544680955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5274211.post-10980497286635456452010-01-01T17:04:40.865-05:002010-01-01T17:04:40.865-05:00Richard, I too have been struggling with the notio...Richard, I too have been struggling with the notion of "success in Cleveland." (see my contribution to last week's Scene magazine at www.clevescene.com) This posting is perceptive and thought-provoking. I do hope it inspires discussion and action.aoscruggsnoreply@blogger.com
