Thanks for sharing.

Responsible for stuff that hasn't even been invented yet. Well done Hamilton County.

If it makes you feel any better, and he did point this out also, we have swimming pools in Jacksonville. Today, as of this past season. Swimming pools - in a football stadium.

This is why here in NE we don't fault Bob Kraft for creating his Patriot Place shopping/dining/lodging complex surrounding Gillette Stadium---he's paying for the stadium himself. The only public money was spent on road improvements, which benefits the public on non-game days as well.

Recently he tried to get multimillions of state aid to put a train station at the complex--state said no. Steve Wynn wanted to build a casino across the street--state said no. Kraft pouted for a while but got over it.

If you get a chance, watch John Oliver's 20 minute piece of testing in schools---guy is brilliant.
