    Its going to happen. Sheila "camera" Jackson Lee was in front of many TV cameras welcoming the House of Blues. She has put her assurances behind it and has done so in front of the TV cameras she loves so much :) :) :) It will happen.............

    Lighting is always good at night dwntwn, especially for someone like me that is very ignorant on the relative safety of dwntwn in the evenings. My ideas of dwntwn after business hours are stuck in the mid 80's-early 90's when it was not such a nice atmoshere. The lighting should go a long way to get people to venture into dwntwn after business hours especially if it is known/marketed. If you tell them, they will come My company is looking for a third major base of operation. I know Houston is on the radar, and i would love to see them expand here with a nice tower dwntwn....pipe dream perhaps..........

    Ah the gays, some of the coolest people on Earth!! Maybe they would know of a good Indian restaurant for vegetarian dishes. That would be worth a shot........

    Cool pics of the Dome. I sure am glad to see that the city has gotten away from building stadiums of that magnitude with a sea of concrete for parking. The parking garages are a must :):):))

    Ah, vegetarian dish in Texas, beef capitol USA

    Thats a lot. Would have thought the INTL numbers would be higher due to the fact that IAH is a large hub for flights headed south of the border to warmer climates. Snow bunnies from the north and midwest.....

    Dont leave out all the people that stay in hotels in the gunspoint area. Re-doing the mall is a good idea and i think it would work :)

    You are aware those troops didnt have live rounds, right? Symbolism over substance.

    The highrise living idea is nice, but when you factor in the cost of it...its not so attractive. The monthly maintenance fees are a big reason for people to stay away. Why pay enormous prices to live in a highrise on shared turf, when you can pay the same and many cases less to have your own detached home with yard and room to grow and expand? I like to see more highrises, but must admit, im not willing to pay the price to live in one with all the fees attached when i can have the same or better in a detached home with yard and room to grow.

    Closure of the observatories protects no one. It is smoke and mirrors...do something completely stupid and beneficial to know one in order to look good in front of cameras. Showing that you are doing something proactive to combat the terror threat....a show that has no teeth. Problem with that stupid move is, people will start to question it over time. They will question it because it makes no sense. Theres no need to sit in on any meetings, been there and done that on a level that you and most others will never know. Closing the observations decks was about as silly and knee jerk as stationing military troops at the nations airports. Symbolism over substance.

    Thier reasoning is "typical knee jerk reaction".

    Spending yrs in the military strategic planning arena......yes i do have inside knowlege of planning, and i stand by what i said...they are a joke!!!!!! So your suggestion to me to think is silly. Afghanistan attacks are on soft targets, its the only thing they can manage to do...small targets on a small scale......run back into hiding.....anything else and the US military will slay them to no end for it would require them to stick thier heads out of hiding a little longer. If soft targets were the goal here, theres more of them other than building observatories, and they rank on the same scale...minimal at best. Closure of the observation decks were and are a "knee jerk, symbolism over substance" reaction to the horror of 9-11. Al Qeida attacked us, not the IRA. The methods are different.
  20. Houston1stWordOnTheMoon
    Al Qeida and the IRA have different agendas. Al Qeida is not interested in bombing an observation deck, they are interested in attacking things that will get them the most television coverage worldwide, such as plane hijackings and the toppling of buildings and the mass murder of thousands of people. The so called security experts are pretty much a joke.

    The British are the largest foreign investors in the USA and have been for a very very longtime I wonder what other key areas are under British control?
