I signed your petition. I don't think they will save it. Universities never do. If all else fails, they experience a mysterious fire and then they use the land for their purpose.

If everyone that visits this site & the other boards will sign it............it might make a difference. I sure hope that they can save it. _________________ Lizzy Back to top tankgrrl29 Moderator Joined: 05 Aug 2007 Posts: 2824 Location: In the Study, with Miss Scarlet and the rope Posted: Sun Aug 03, 2008 1:59 pm    Post subject: hey brian, any updates on the petition, or status on plans for the property?

It will probably be raised after the first of the year. _________________ www.akronmarbles.com www.americantoymarbles.com www.canalfultonglassworks.com Back to top migbar Joined: 04 Aug 2007 Posts: 135 Location: central California Posted: Wed Oct 29, 2008 7:00 pm    Post subject: So sorry to hear that, Brian. mike b. _________________ let's enjoying marbles !
