The whole philosophy is that North Carolina was judged as spending too much money on institutional care instead of community care. So you downsize the institutions.

There's been a tremendous enthusiasm about it. I think we have a lot going for us.

I see us as in a transition phase. It's not all there, not all together, yet.

A lot of those could be treated out in the communities.

The single greatest invention man ever conceived in the dollar bill, because I don't want to know the conversion rate for coconuts.

We, as a community, live as the wind blows with visitors; they bring the money into the city, ... When they come, they require protection. The way I see it, it is an insurance premium I pay so that visitors and residents can be safe.
