Dude,
Who says I'm trying to "convince." Are you imposing your values on me or something? I think my father is supposed to do that.

Isn't it a bit hilly around that block of Broderick? Does it make sense to build housing for the elderly on a hill?

Maybe. But with that attitude you repel more than convince.

Yes, always. But I do have love in my heart.
