JasonDFW Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 Unless I'm misinterpreting things, I think T Cole is saying that technically the Kimball is in FW and that it is unacceptable that "the best museum in the southwest" is not in Dallas proper.In other words, he's more pointing out that he/she thinks that the Kimball is (at least arguably anyway) the best museum in the Southwest.I could be wrong, though.Gotcha, thanks.Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcole Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 In an incendiary manner I was ascribing the "unacceptability" to the position that a proud dallasite would have.And I do think that the KimbEll IS the best "fine" arts museum in the southwest. One of the finest in the world. I also think that MFA Houston is a very close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Hizzy! Posted April 14, 2006 Share Posted April 14, 2006 I've never been, but I have heard that the Kimball Museum is quite impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxDave Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Re-read my post. Here, I will make it easier:Therefore, the board seats were allocated based on relative population, because the original ownership was such. Perhaps I should have made the case that ownership allotment should also be similarly re-apportioned.You raise a good point. The DFW Airport website does not state how the ownership allotment was established.If, in fact, it was based on population, then a redistribution may be appropriate. Although when I read "ownership", I expect that there might be some relationship to the original investment - just like ownership of anything else. When the airport was founded Dallas likely invested more and therefore has a greater ownership stake.If anyone has any background on this topic, please share.

mattscards Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 My only compliment for you Tcole is that you would make a great lawyer because you can bend through anything. Pass the crack pipe in many people's minds is interpreted as bad. i don't know if you do but people in general do which is why you need to be careful with words. Or Ima tussle youuuuuuuu. Smart guy... you need to stick to the topic and stop trying to make yourself look inferior to everyone else...or do like most people would like.. go back to your Donky Kong video game or go to some chat room for children.There is no place for people like you here. This place has serious topics and is a well organized site and I for one enjoy reading it. Take your flames elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smart guy Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I don't appreciate this flame war you are trying to start. All I can say about you is grow up. And yes for your information I go in chat rooms for children, I'm 12 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tierwestah Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 HOLY COW! Fort Worth wasn't originally predicted to hit 675K until the year 2015, and 727K by the year 2020.http://www.nctcog.org/ris/demographics/for...e&thevalue=1500 At this rate, they could make the 2020 numbers by 2008. now we know where most of the growth is coming from in the DFW metro! I guess if growth doesn't happen in Dallas or the Dallas metro area, it can still count on Fort Worth to back it up to make the DFW area stay on top. Houston (just one city) however, we gotta do everything on our own! We're Houston- we pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcole Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 And yes for your information I go in chat rooms for children, I'm 12 years old.If that is indeed true, the I apologize smartguy for my berating of you. I mistakenly assumed you to be older and therefore better prepared for mature dialogue that includes vagaries such as irony and satire.You might want to consider that you might not be completely prepared to contribute to boards such as these until you are older.

JasonDFW Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 now we know where most of the growth is coming from in the DFW metro! Most of the growth in the Metroplex occurs east of the Dallas-Tarrant county line, but barely. By percentage Collin county is the clear leader though (out of the big 4 counties). The west side is basically filling in the suburban areas north of the city that would correspond geographically to say Richardson, Plano etc.. which were filled in several years ago on the east side. Both the west side and east side are slowly creeping up to Oklahoma as the locals say, but the east side got a big head start. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcole Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Don't belittle me just cause I'm 12. I am a genius in the making. Private schools.But dear boy, you are out of your league, so to speak. You may be "smart" among the acne set, but I am afraid that claiming private schooling is not going to cut it with me (as I am a by-product as well). I applaud your gumption, but your previous series of posts indicates that you need a few more years on you.At your level, you are best served to read and ask questions; on this board, the former may be your best avenue.
