but with all due respect, I am curious what your stance would be on "the more the merrier" if the Green was your backyard run?

I think what Chris is trying to say (and seems to be saying it pretty clearly) is that the Green is simply just not set up to be a high use resource.  

I think everyone here is making valid points, but the people who stand to be affected the most (locals) are perhaps just a little more passionate about the issue.  

Perhaps we should wait and see what the outcome is before we all get in a twist.
