Re: Anyone familiar with Section 8 housing in S.C. (Good pos
Posted by Will Rogers on 7/05/07


    Nice post! Once I move to the beaufort area, is there someone you would
    recommend I contact to try and make the situations better? If we can get
    enough people working in a positive direction, I see now how we can create
    positive change, as suggested in your post.

    I am so used to PA now and how they just tear into people I get defensive,
    and I'm sorry for sniping...and I understand better what you were saying
    after your last post.

    Now, put the brains together to find ways to make things work like they are
    supposed to would be a good thing!

    Good luck to your child's aspirations to teach, as good teachers are needed!

    Thanks for clarifyin your post, I appreciate it.

    Will
