Unfortunately you might be right.
In 2014, I had a fellow interested in the TDG. He tried to set up some TDG meetings in his neigborhood in Cobb County, Georgia. No interest.
From this side of the TDG fence, I see so many people complaining about the conditions on their side of the fence. I say to them, "Come take a look on this side." Alas they cannot do that.

In case you were wondering, I thought I needed to name the Ward 2 Councilor for better effect. You were indeed the inspiration!
