   I moved to the city, deliberately, because I care enough about it,   
   on a personal level, that having a physical presense in it   
   is my way of offering support and commitment to it. I couldn't   
   do that by continuing to live in the suburbs.   
      
   I don't have any emotional bond with the suburbs although I   
   have spent most of my life in the suburbs. I just don't   
   give a damn what happens there. No one in Plymouth Meeting   
   or Oaks or Phoenixville needs me. But people at Broad   
   and Erie need me. People in Oxford Circle need me. People   
   at 23rd and Fitzwater need me. And I need them.   
      
   Addressing the negatives? By living a stable life, contributing   
   to the city through my time and effort, being good citizen   
   that's how I address the negatives.
