A few days ago there was an article in the Fort Worth Star Telegram newspaper claiming that Fort Worth and the region rank top 10 globally for business development.
We love Fort Worth (that's why we live here) and we agree businesses are good for the area economy, however we couldn't help notice a few oddities with the article.
First, the study was done by the Dallas Regional Chamber.
Second, the article was written by the Executive Vice President for Economic Development with the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce.
Huh?
We would have let the mention of our advanced transportation infrastructure, including our interstate freeways, slide, had we not sat on one for an hour trying to go 10 miles earlier this week. Advanced is not the word that came to mind.

Are you a concerned citizen?
Have you been appalled by what you see on the "news" happening in the communities? Ever been disturbed by the lack of coverage or the lack of facts shared by the media? Who knows more about what is going on in your community? A reporter with a deadline or informed citizens? Have you ever attended a city meeting? Are you concerned with your current leadership? Ever written a Letter to the Editor that was edited beyond recognition? Or not printed at all? Let us know what's going on in your cities, help to educate your neighbors. The things taking place now are regional and affect all of us.
