  GaryC I answered that way back and wont repeat it.
  
  I see that the man you all much admire Bob Goldfield has come out against Charlie's plan. Never did seem much of an origional thinker, Goldfield. The only thing he was right about is that you cannot run a modern Port on the basis of a medievil charter.
  
  If the attitudes expressed by some here prevailed with their 'can't do' theme, trying to pick holes focussed only on trying to find how sometghing wont succeeed, we would never have had human progress.
  Columbus would never have disciovered the New World.
  Churchill would have surrendered in 1940.
  The Post Office would still be in charge of our telephone monopoly and we would have big black dial-up boxes.
  
  Dover Council Planning Department would be proud of the 'cant do' attitude.
  
  Me, I prefer the 'can do' attitude, where you see the problems and find way to deal with them, embracing new ideas and innovation. That is why I admire the American attitude to life rather than that which has so held back Dover over the years. We need Charlie's idea to work to Dover's benefit so instead of picking holes why not try to find the solutions to make it work in that way. More difficult that just critisising.
