They will never see it as a great deal. They will see it as somehow "affecting" them. That's not to say there aren't nice people in Kona - that would just be silly. But many, many of the residents there are concerned with the "bottom line" as it relates to their "stuff." Sad but true.
There are a few oldtimers on KW who say that Puna is moldy, rotting, cold, soggy, coqui ridden, etc. We know different. Certainly it is wetter than Kona - what isn't? I just see what they see as unbearable as "character" and charm of the area. I see green, lush, alive, fresh, magical...etc.
Those houses in that subdivision there in DH are causing quite a stir over in Kona...surprising how much energy spent on that subject.
John R - whaddya think?
