Interesting. Can you elaborate a little more on "can and should"? When I
talked to the Unit 4 Director of Technology (Roger Grinnip), he gave me the
impression that the school anchors would be closed off from the community.

Additionally, as I am working with folks at Shadow Wood, any opinion on
extending the reaches of UC2B into a privately-owned trailer park? I am
thinking of bringing this question to Dr. Eugene Barnes, who operates the
Anchor Institution at 1313 N. Clock Street (Metanoia Center).
