Thankyou, that someone has finally stated the obvious. Perhaps we should
pay more attention to dealing with housing, employment, recreation for
the poplution that is hear before anymore non-business developing is
done. i.e. more ugly lunchbox living and vast blacktop
lots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still believe that after all is said and done that Moscowvites are
going to experience a serious crash in the housing market when we are no
longer "The" desireable bedroom community and short-lived residence put
there new-maud homes on the market and there is no-one to by them.
