Well Richie, the topic is the self-centered Greens of today, not the Greens of the past. It is also not about the Adachi of the past, but the turncoat of today that your handful of Greens endorsed. Call me any name you like (as is the wont of small-minded fools), but the fact is the Green Party is failing because it is nothing but a private social club of self-righteous nihilists, who are clueless about even the city's recent history. There isn't a dime's worth of difference between you and the folks you criticize. So next time you call someone reactionary, Richie, take a close look in your mirror while thinking of Adachi as mayor. Fortunately, you're just part of another failed 3rd Party.<br>
<br>
Happy Election Day - Bill<br>
