small town America - let's not be "superior" to anyone

What positive and fun thing can YOU do for YOUR neighborhood or YOUR group? Newsweek proclaimed Grand Rapids, Michigan "dead" two weeks ago. In a week, the Mayor, police, fire and citizens came back with this reply. It's had 1.5 million hits in 4-5 days.  And no, they didn't pick or pay the people - all were invited to participate and these are the people who showed up.
