That's the part that's risky, that Bowman was commenting on, that the "article" completely didn't mention.
Shit, that'd be awesome.

I'd salute anyone who pulled that off.

Yeah, unfair this, unfair that, but it beats the cities holy vigilance to assess as high and as often as possible.

I'm coming across here too like its a major issue but this is just from some tweets. If Bellamy is indeed out there - keep doing what you're doing and run for mayor or councillor.
Bowman actually bugs me because he tries too hard to be liked, and loses his spine... he's still arrogant, but that fear of losing friends cost us an open P+M
