They Must Not Get MJS In Wausau

From the Wausau Daily Herald:

If central central Wisconsin is going to get young professionals to move here and stay here, it needs to improve its image online, open up communication between hubs Wausau, Stevens Point and Wisconsin Rapids, and it needs more bike lanes.

Those were some of the ideas raised by a group of young leaders assembled Wednesday by the regional economic development organization Centergy, which covers Marathon, Portage and Wood counties. The Centergy Creative Council is a group of about 20 people, mostly in their 20s and 30s, who are tasked with finding ways to make the region more attractive to young professionals. Fifteen people attended the group's "inaugural summit" at the chalet at Granite Peak Ski Area to discuss the specific initiatives they hope to pursue.

The article goes on to point out that one of the biggest obstacles facing this group is that the area is not regionalized.

Bike paths? Lifestyle opportunities? Regionalization?

Obviously, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel doesn't get delivered up there nor do they have access to JSOnline for some reason. If they had access to these, they would have been able to learn from Patrick McIlheran that the only way for a community or region to survive is if there is sufficient sprawl to pave everything over.

Here's A Big Word For PaddyMac: Cementencephalous

Cementencphalous: meaning is mind is all mixed up and firmly set, like cement.

Example:

Funny how the same people appalled at suburban spread now seem eager that vacanat[sic] land by a freeway in Wauwatosa not be used for a college. Others now want to leave undeveloped a former dump in St. Francis. You’d think using such urban in-fill sites already surrounded by plentiful parkland would be preferable to making colleges go hunt campus space out past the urban fringe, but I’m not a green, so I’m not up on all the dogma.

Of course, to believe Preview Paddy, one would have to ignore what Dave Reid, The River Otter, and yours truly have been writing for weeks, in which we offer viable and more rewarding sites such as the Park East Corridor, St. Columbia's Hospital, and downtown Milwaukee (multiple sites), to name just a few.

But then again, he's not intellectually honest, so he's not up on all that dogma.

Perhaps if the National Review, the Washington Post and/or Dad29 would link to us, he might have been aware that he was a mistake. Then again, since that appears to be where he does get his information, he probably wouldn't catch on anyway.
