This is really interesting and important. Yes, a renaissance. At one point Hillsdale was a fairly prosperous little town, with machining and auto parts industries. It's greatest problem was a failure to adapt and compete to changes in these markets, and active opposition to new business opportunities. I think that hostile climate has changed and there's real opportunity here. One of my local friends ("yeah, I'm a 'Townie,'" he laughs) thinks one of the harder things is breaking a local culture of resignation that has developed, something he's trying to find ways to reverse.
I have no big point to make, just observing that your approach is promising and I look forward to seeing more.
