      <![CDATA[In regards to Centerstage and our city elite:<br><br>"True generativity is rooted in our involvement in the larger society, not merely in our own personal sphere of influence. When our desire to make a difference in our world comes from the inside out and is not relied on for identity, power, and wealth but rather is charaterized by traits such as authenticity, self-authority, and personal passion, it is more significant.

      <![CDATA[oh, but the corporations and the amoral a**holes who run them are amused .... indeed they are .....it really is amazing the way they keep managing to punk the people of this city ... it is really so simple ... you get a bunch of rich white guys in suits to talk real pretty to the black politicians and preachers and shazaaam .... the black politicians and preachers so very much want to be made to feel powerful by the rich white guys that they will agree to just about anything ..... like building an opera house for the rich, old white guys instead of making the schools fit for 21st century learners and having the schools comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act ..... instead of making sure that homeless families have decent shelter .....instead of making sure that ALL children have a warm bed and food in their bellies when they go to sleep .... aaaahhh...what those poor people need to do is LEARN HOW TO APPRECIATE OPERA .....

Let me add one more thought in response to your frustration: "Perhaps the countdown to a project that compromises any hope of local future funding for my organization has unleashed the devil in me."<br><br>I think we often get surprised in life - in the positive sense, and when we least expect it.

We all know the historic significance of the Carpenter Center, we all know the philanthropic spirit that the Ukrop family has shown over the years, and we all know how important arts are to our beloved city.

      <![CDATA[Ms. Robinson, I respectfully read your reply and thought 'perhaps progress is being made'. Then you added your 'zinger':<br><br>	"You know what, this response is an utter waste of my time and energy and I 	cannot believe that you are so oblivious as to what is happening in your own 	art community."<br><br>Now that you've told me I'm 'oblivious' and 'put me in my place' there would seem little else to discuss.

      <![CDATA[Dear Lois Snitkoff,<br>If you read my comment, then you would have noticed that I did in fact admit to Ukrops "affecting our community in extremely positive ways". However, I feel that this specific project has repeatedly disregarded the important economic concerns that exist within our community.

      <![CDATA[Part 2 of 3 in this somewhat disturbing interview with CenterStage's Jim Ukrop and Bob Mooney, is once again stating the obvious...that Centerstage is more/less of a business venture created to spur economic growth.<br><br>Ukrops and Mooney stumble over and ignore any questions regarding finances and obviously have no knowledge of the arts in our community. Ukrops states that "Just as of recent, he realizes how art plays an important role in the lives of children", and that is why he feels it important to take money from our taxpayers.
