Steve - Thanks for bringing this one back to planet earth.

He is so down to earth.

The highway department said no way on earth would they allow me to cut another driveway into the highway.The last park fell through because the owner had leased a barn to a car repair business and refused to allow me to do an environmental survey.

The human need to survive is very strong in our species probably stronger than any animal species on earth so the will to live will indeed drive us to keep functioning even in desperate times.

Where on earth did you hear that?

Somebody has been watching the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still a little too much.

I am looking for replies from anyone who is buying in those areas in the hopes that they can explain why they are and also from anyone who purchased in the past in those areas to see how they made out.Unlike many people who are buying in those areas, I flew to Ohio, Detroit and the Pittsburgh area on different occasions and did my due diligence, Then I hid my money and credit cards in my sock and drove my rental car as fast as the law would allow back to the airport.Maybe, I missed something, maybe I am not as smart as I think I am, so as of today, wholesalers have been selling property in those areas for about 5 years and I am hoping to hear from people who either did buy to find out how they are doing or people who are thinking about buying to find out why on earth they are even considering it.

As far as colors go earth tones are always a safe choice but now days grey is the new beige :)2.

Why on earth would you give up that plus appreciation?

Then if somebody leaves it's not earth shattering.
