ROWLETT RAMBLINGS

Apparently, the meeting last night in Lavon about the Blacklands Corridor was a head fake.  They knew I couldn't make it, so they cancelled the meeting.  Of course, they told everyone that the Fire Marshal wouldn't allow it because the 500-700 (depending on who you read) were too many people for the fire regulations regulating the facility in which they were meeting.  Boy, the excuses some people come up with.   


In any event, the meeting was "cancelled" after about a half hour.  I know our mayor was there, but not sure how many other people from Rowlett were there.  What is important is that there is significant interest.  What I fear is that a lot of people are against the new toll way without really knowing why.  These would be people that are "energized" by others without knowing the facts.  There can be many reasons why the new toll way is bad for you.  There can also be many reasons why the toll way is good.  It all resides in the facts.  You must know the facts first before shouting.   Otherwise, it is a meeting out of a B grade movie.  You know, ox carts with wooden wheels, skinny little girls with dirty dresses holding hands with their mother who looks like she hasn't had a meal in 6  weeks.  Her daddy is dressed in bib overalls and carrying a torch and a pitchfork.  You know the type of meeting that is.  


Get the facts.  That is by far the most important thing to do.
