10. But why change everything????
Edited on Thu Aug-07-03 10:14 AM by Cascadian
What's so wrong with preserving what we have? Yes, I try to do my part and I am not moaning! Do people feel the need to have this "colonization" mentality when they come up here?

The Northwest can go forward but not at the price of sacrificing who we are. I don't want it disappearing. That's all!

Another reason to point the finger at California. Look at how many people are in California (35 million) compared to the states of Cascadia (9 million). It's like a mouse compared to a cat. Plus, you must admit that California has done a poor job at putting curbs on overdevelopment. If you don't believe me look at the sprawl of L.A.. I don't want that! I guess I view California the same way a Scot views England. California to us is what England is to Scotland in my view.

So this is why I have the concerns that I do.
