Last paragraph was fairly on topic but don’t think any corps or organizations can do anything about it. What I didn’t see was why people have left the cities and decrease in housing. Decrease in housing = buildings condemned or torn down and never rebuilt. Harrisburg is a good example.... including loss of corps sponsor because the Post closed.

I was trying to, and I think I actually succeeded in, relating NE's post to the thread, instead of coming right out and stating he was off-topic. But sorry you thought it was silly. It was a stretch, I'll admit. Fixed Edited August 17, 2020 by garfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not click on the link either it was a link to a political hack. Edited August 17, 2020 by E3D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was responding to the One Billion Americans (less people in the cities) one and didn’t quote it as only responded to last paragraph....

But sorry you thought it was silly. It was a stretch, I'll admit. Fixed I never said it was silly. However, it doesn't take a SpaceX rocket scientist to understand how A+B=C. It's been quiet here for a couple of weeks. Few closed posts. Lots of interesting discussion about the activity. I wish we could focus on drum corps. You add some very interesting commentary to that discussion. We may be ideologically on different paths, but it doesn't mean that you comments are ignored. I keep that in mind. Years ago you posted a complete analogy on 990s here. So many read every single thing you posted and still bring them up. I'm not even in your country and still refer back to that your analysis. You gave such insight into how the US taxation system works for non-for profits. Edited August 17, 2020 by Continental Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm dreaming of crowds like this (taken earlier today in another country) outside stadium entrances trying to get in and see drum corps: (A drum corps coincidence: in the background I have Youtube randomly playing, and it happened to pull up "Autumn Leaves", albeit by Vince Guaraldi not Bluecoats.) Weak really Weak use of this picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
