Actually not. Just trying to see what is actually occuring down in San Antonio. Love the city (which you always seem to forget...why do you forget...because your life is about arguing).

Chicago has its own problem...trying to figure that out too. The estimate says we are shrinking...but as you will note over in disussions...we are all in disbelief because of all the construction downtown and almost all the neighborhoods. So we are trying to figure out what is actually happening.

In the case of San Antonio....is that infill? That would be a fantastic thing to hear about. San Antonio is doing infill. But until we know...how much growth is attributed to people actually moving and building in the city verses simple annexation..that picture is muddy.

And how does 3 times as many people moving into Chicagoland....than the S.A. metro show my inferority. Be smarter boy with your quips...please.

Here is my inferority Complex...match this big boy:
