Move to Cary?

I'm the guy who wrote the letter to the Chapel Hill Weekly in September suggesting that people supporting a Costco in Orange County should consider moving to Cary.   Those who chose to  respond rightly condemned me for the arrogant tone of my writing, but if I read the terms of Orange Politics correctly, we should strive to deal in ideas, not personal attacks.   I care a lot about this place, so sometimes my rhetoric gets away from me.   I apologize for my tone, but not my ideas.   One may argue that it is obnoxious to be anti-growth since I was once a new person here myself some forty years ago.   (And I know something of struggling here as a state employee.  I lived in a house with three room mates for some sixteen years before I was able to buy a home in Carrboro.)
