Developers and spokesmen for the local government claim that the site is "historically insignificant." The location of the actual fighting, they point out, is well preserved within the national park, and a Hazel/Peterson spokesman insists that the mall architects have gone to great lengths to make sure most of the buildings will not be seen by tourists. Moreover, while historians estimate that 155 men died on or near the hill, a survey of the mall property uncovered only the grave...
...sure, this is no land for five-star aficionados. It has virtually no true luxury hotels, and the number of total hotel beds is an absurdly low 120,000. The space situation is so bad that officials in Urgup, the main town of the Cappadocia region, are opening up private homes to tourists to ease the shortage.

The major issue is trying to give people a sense of the landmark changes taking place inside the Soviet Union." With budgets growing tighter, however, the networks will have to take a harder look at whether such reporting extravaganzas are justified...
...both so damn intense on the ice. We lose it on the ice," Sweeney says. "Sure, Jerry might hit a little bit more than I do, I may skate a little bit more than he does. But we both enjoy those aspects of the game. It may seem on a first basis level that we have contrasting styles, but we're not that contrasting...
