  1. It’s great that we saved Crain, but let’s be honest, attracting talent to that location will be a very heavy lift – even if people commute from Bloomington.

  2. Agree with Aaron, this is a great initiative and investment, but this initiative will struggle to attract and retain the necessary talent to support the high tech jobs due to the remote location.
