It’s too bad that this site seems to be largely defunt. I miss reading the debates that would often transpire in the comments section. Are you guys ever going to breath some life into this place again?

Aw, this was a very nice post. Finding the time and
actual effort to create a really good article… but what can
I say… I procrastinate a lot and don’t seem to get nearly anything done.

Comment on Built To Last - the visual depiction of ScaleDown’s mission/vision by Anna

Not a bad idea. slum lords are still lords, right? I have no personal bone to pick with cheap hounsig, I’m just wondering why more employers aren’t swooping in and scooping up the locations and employees.The reality is that this can continue on for a long, long time. There are places in the Southern Tier of New York state and upstate New York where you can buy houses cheaper now than you could in 1980. That’ll fry your brain when you see that you can already buy houses, not foreclosures in places like Binghamton and Syracuse NY for less than the wood the house is made out of.I know of people buying entire city houses (we know them as town houses) with 8000 sq ft on 4 levels and a commercial shop front for less than 100K in the past few years. You can get fully rehabbed 4000 sq ft victorian mansions for about half the price of a 1 bedroom condo in SoCal. Why go to a third world country when you’ve got it right upstate?Most people believe that residential real estate is a good investment because it has been in the places where many people live for the past 20 years. The next 20 or 30? Maybe not so much.I remember living in East Germany after the wall came down and seeing beautiful turn-of-the century buildings completely abandoned with squatters living in them that couldn’t be sold for $30K. How easy people are to cover their eyes to how things could be. I guess it’s just the eternal optimists that humans are.

With havin so much content do you ever run into any isuess of plagorism or copyright infringement? My site has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any solutions to help stop content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.

I miss the old Kildare. I don’t need another ‘cleaned up’, faux, so-called pub. Oh, and Chris, keep me posted on your search mate.

Are you saying that you can legally trademark the name without the estate’s permission?
