“Reading is like the sex act-done privately, and often in bed.”

“There's nothing that's private any more. If a guy's walking around on crutches, you're going to read about it 20 minutes later on the Internet. If somebody wants to find out, they will find out. You're not going to sneak up on anybody. There's still going to 11 people on the field.”
Chuck Amato

Cindy Johnson
“We were sad to see it come down without any notice. We understand that it's privately owned and on private property, but from our perspective, it would have been nice to have been given notice so we could have taken photos, or gotten historical things out of the building. There also could have been some options for the state of Oregon to have taken it over through a historical trust or as a nonprofit.”
