Charberlain's comments have always been useful and well-thought out. I don't really care what he does for a living, nor am I trying to attack him, and I certainly don't want to demonize him for working for Westcam. I just think he should refrain from commenting on this, or at least make his personal interest more obvious. I should have been more clear on this point.

That said, I'm quite disappointed that this site is being considered. I don't think it's a good use of lands that have potential for innovation and good employment.

But I would appreciate one clarification: I read elsewhere that the site being considered is south of Aberdeen, but it appears here that we are talking about the warehouse location on the west side of Longwood. There seems to be plenty of space for a stadium south of Aberdeen where the viewing station was set up for the Aberdeen road replacement. If you drive through the lights and follow Longwood across Aberdeen it opens onto a large warehouse building with considerable space available. I don't know how much space, but I thought this was the site we were discussing and I didn't think it was so terrible. Are we sure that instead the site is really just across the street from the old Camco building? (as much as we're sure of anything these days...)
