If you read the article I read it was all about the economy. Drop in the catering, drop in the private biz, drop in the restaurant, and all stemming from the economy. I know the Jordans and have long frequented all the independents featured in this article, and I don't see sour grapes. Understandable frustration, no sour grapes. In fact, the Jordans specifically seem to be "getting it."
Too many tourists are lemmings, or afraid to let go of the edge of the pool. Show a path to a Margaritaville or Outback and off they go. Just a fact.
BTW, for all your rants I assumed you were done with LVA.
