mm> Melanie O Massengale 

mm> Talk to Gary about his anti-yuppie and homophobic views.

  I'm not homophobic, and I resent the accusation. I believe it's a result of
  an overactive and prejudicial imagination. Then again, I've been called a
  lot worse, for much the same (faulty) thinking process.

mm> Gary is perhaps unaware of the problems caused by the Coors Classic bike 
    race a few years back in North Boulder Park.

  I'm well aware of that problem. In fact, I attended a number of those old
  races, even back when it was the Red Zinger.

mm> The event was simply too large for the neighborhood, and the neighbors
    were successful in petitioning Council to have it removed.  I believe the
    same principle may apply here.

  If Boulder can handle 50,000 football fans 5-6 times each year, then it can
  handle the PKers. The PKer's problem isn't their numbers, it's the lack of
  planning. If Boulder's going to ask that the PKers not return, they should
  also ask CU to play its home football games elsewhere too. Heck, toss in
  the Bolder Boulder too!

mm> Gary could go a long way to making everyone's visit on this group a pleas-
    ant one with a little more courtesy.

  This from a person who slings around claims of homophobia with no evidence
  to support them. Pshaw.
