I'm sure this is just the starting point. We want to work from the ground up and get people thinking about crime prevention.
Everyone has been wonderful, ... So many people have sent me supportive e-mails or attempted phone calls.
I keep repeating that people are not stupid, and we're not. For every destructive emotion and limiting belief we hang onto, there are payoffs, hidden benefits. Why else would we hold onto them?
It's amazing how much people really do want to conform.
It's real, he says, but ''the people inside don't know.
We just played bigger people the last two games. We're not going to play 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10 Thursday. I think we should be all right.

Every time we played somebody, except maybe for Seton Hall, they're going to have big crowds there. When you play somebody like Southern Miss, there might be six people there.
We sell the fact that it's the Loud House. It's 50,000 people but when that place is full, it's the loudest place in the country. I think it's a novelty, more kids haven't played indoors and they kinda like that.
Traffic is not an immutable force. When faced with less space to drive and more places to walk, people will alter their behavior and walk more, drive less.
Today we've probably taken between 70 and 80 calls from people who said 'I want to come and help',
