I was astonished at how many personal attacks were levied on RG4N people from the start, instead of the issue. Even some people publicly attacked RG4N and belittled them, while claiming to be for their fight, instead of helping them. Lincoln seems to have gotten off without a scratch. I am also glad that people in my city put up this fight, which has merit here, just as it has in other cities. I do not relish being able to say, "Told you so" when the traffic is more than we can bear. All that being said, I think that there is still a lot of good to come from this fight in terms of the upcoming election and how people may be more involved than ever in issues surrounding how our city grows and copes with its never ending growing pains.
