Dear Roxy,

I believe that you've overreacted too quickly. You see, the LPTS doesn't stand for extremely 'rich' or Beverly Hills (California) exotic luxury. While those things are all nice, we here in Lincoln Park settle for a more subtle, refined luxury in the places we live, the people we associate with, and the materials we take for granted. The Good Life in Lincoln Park is everything we make of it, and if you look at the Society's website or interview a few of our members, you'll see that we really enjoy what we have. It might not be the very best, but that's what the North Shore is for, right?

Everyone knows you can't have a ten acre 12,000 square foot estate in Lincoln Park, and who would want one anyway? Our quaint brownstones confined to the 19 X 85 city lot are very adequate for us; this is city living after all.

I suggest that you stand back and look at things in a different light. Trixies don't think they are 'better' than everyone else, in fact, most Trixies are not aware of everyone else. Trixies are simply interested in living the best lives they can here in our wonderful neighborhood of the nation's greatest city.

Best Regards,
Ashley Burke
