      <![CDATA[Well, guess what folks..this Portlander for one is in favor of the Radiohead Tax.<br>
<br>
I mean we all paid the Quarterflash Tax back in the early 80s--and look what that did for agreeable soft rock music. Though there was a lot of extra medical bills locally from arteries clogging and coronary bypasses after people took "Harden my Heart" a little too literally.

      <![CDATA[I do wonder in passive aggressive Portland if servers inform customers that while they are still open at, say, 10:50 pm, that they do close at 11 and the customers may consider ordering something to go or finding a place to stay late. I think the first I,A server is letting people in and then glowering at them and expecting them to get the hint and go away.

      <![CDATA[And by the way--as far as what "ruins this place"--I'd put my money on trendy tourists like you, who ride over here because everybody says it's a cool place; but you get here and say crap like "the food isn't like New York's" and "the pizza isn't like Chicago's" and so on. Yeah, this isn't Chicago, New York, Milwaukee, Phoenix, or wherever you came from with your superior culture and fluoridation. 'We want fluoride in the water because that's how they do it in civilized places' you all scream and shout. 'That's normal!' Why did you move here? Because it's 'cool' here? So, why do you constantly complain about how we do it here while trying desperately to change Portland into one of your culturally superior cities that fit the norm so well? Oh, yeah, because you're tourists on the let's-go-to-Portland-where-all-the-cool-kids-go road trip. But then you say to yourselves, 'This isn't like home. Portland should be more like where I lived.' Well, sagging flint, that does merit a "fuck right off."

      <![CDATA[Hey, sagging flint. I was responding to anecdote with anecdote. So, perhaps you have the same advice for Gza1340. Also, the moniker "Kiddo" is cute and diminutive. So, using it on me is as well. And as far as "the turd that ruins this place" goes: I suppose the expression, "I know you are, but what am I?" has currency with you. (Tourist.)

      <![CDATA[The Portland Mercury either totally dropped the ball looking at the truth of the matter, or the despite all the edgy, artsy, "alternative" dressing is just as corporate sell-out snake of a paper. At least with the Oregonian you know what you're getting.<br>
<br>
It's really too bad all of the name calling of people unwilling to have a rational respectful dialogue. All your hateful ignorant name calling means nothing.<br>
If you really had a good case for fluoridation you wouldn't need to mock and demonize with no basis.<br>
<br>
A landslide number of Portland voters get it. I hope the rest of Portland gets it eventually soon enough. There are much better ways to deal with dental health than dumping the toxic by-product of the fertilizer industry into the Bull Run water.

The dad folding Lee dungarees before church is the person most likely to tell you some dumb joke, and even HE thinks its a dumb joke to call Portland unambitious.

      <![CDATA[Let's not forget that the arts tax pays for stuff that isn't arts-in-schools-- like a $100k for an RACC executive's salary, various art projects that don't necessarily keep the money in Oregon, and handouts for the opera and symphony. Is this the bill you voted for? I bet you didn't even read it.<br>
<br>
The benefit to schools was an afterthought. Stop using "the children" as ransom.

      <![CDATA[Let me just point out that the Portland unemployment rate just fell to meet the national average, so take from that whatever you need to.<br>
<br>
Personally, I'd wager that we've imported enough tech talent in the past two years to temporarily eclipse the number of unskilled future baristas streaming into our town every day.<br>
<br>
That, or the "Portlandia" show has made Portland uncool with the youngsters and the influx has cooled.
