(Making a mole hill out of a mountain)
 |
| What was left of the mountain after the City Council "improved it." |
Most people liked the mountain and called it a natural wonder. Many who were fit, would climb it.
Parents would take their kids to the mountain and teach them about nature and how mountains came to be.
The mountain was a refreshing break from the streets and traffic and buildings in the rest of the city. There it sat, natural and unkempt as an example of what nature builds without the help of man.
And, there were birds and other animals living free and on their own with no help from man on the mountain. And, there were wind sown plants in abundance that had adapted to make a living on the rocky sides of the mountain, without gardeners to tend them, and without sprinklers to water them. They had no help from man at all. Not only did they live under the natural conditions found on the mountain--they flourished. This was nature at work.
Then, one day, some people who couldn't climb the mountain said it wasn't fair that they couldn't also climb the mountain.
So, the City Council put in some elevators, escalators and stairs along with wide trails all over the mountain, so these people could climb the mountain.
But, that still wasn't good enough for some people, so the City Council dynamited and flattened the mountain down to its base.
Now, everyone could climb the mountain. Of course, it was no longer really a mountain at all. Most of the birds and other animals are now gone also, and the natural plants have been replaced by the City Council with ones that require City staff to water, fertilize and take care of every day, or they would die. You see, they are not adapted to the mountain--even in its much reduced size.
Which leads us to a discussion of our natural Fairview Park...never mind. You get the picture.

AGENDA FOR NEXT TUESDAY'S CITY COUNCIL MEETING
The hot item on the agenda is a request for a rehearing of the Fairview Park entryway concept plans.
Although the haters of the good Council members expect this effort to rehear this item will fail, we have a feeling that the vote will go in favor of a rehearing. Yes, we're just guessing, but it makes sense to us for a number of different reasons, that I won't go into here, to let this be reheard.
