DC Tom Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/05/nyregion/national-comedy-center-jamestown.html I only skimmed the first few paragraphs...but I assume that Andrew Cuomo is somehow directly to blame for that ridiculous idea?

ExiledInIllinois Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I like that: Tests... (The) "power of giggles versus geography." I am gonna file that away in my "geographical advantage" screeds. Can anybody suggest things that Jamestown can do that creates a positive rate of return on money spent? Just for schits and giggles.

Tiberius Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Perched in the westernmost county in New York, within heckling distance of Ohio, Jamestown has been leaking population for years as many of its furniture factories flopped and textile mills tanked. Actually PA is really close, Ohio is about an hour away. PA boarder is less than ten minutes. Nice hockey rink there though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I only skimmed the first few paragraphs...but I assume that Andrew Cuomo is somehow directly to blame for that ridiculous idea? Hah. State invests $10 million into a facility nobody will use, but block fracking rights on top of the biggest gas reserves in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I only skimmed the first few paragraphs...but I assume that Andrew Cuomo is somehow directly to blame for that ridiculous idea? You are correct, sir.... “I believe this is going to be a national attraction,” Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said during a stop here in early August to announce a promotional package for the center, predicting scores of jobs and millions of dollars for the local economy. “You are already hitting it out of the park.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hah. State invests $10 million into a facility nobody will use, but block fracking rights on top of the biggest gas reserves in the country. If natural gas becomes scarce in the future, the fracking gas in NY will be worth a fortune. Maybe then can be done safer then now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
