I did not pose any question, I thought I was referring to the voting from the question agreed amongst forum participants. Assuming that people wanted their votes counted when they voted, I feel it reasonable to refer to the result. 40% may be a small number of people but it is still more than those trying to stop Horniman holding any form of Jerk chicken cookout ever again, which I understand is your position.
There is a big difference in density levels for a single event and density levels for day to day living. For events there are a variety of ways to control density when necessary.
Having spoken to Janet Vitmayer about the issue, I can confirm that Horniman is looking at a number of issues relating to large events. They then need to make a decision regarding how they handle large events. She also told me that, in response to some letters she had recieved, she has written to apologise for the unreasonable level of inconvenience caused to local residents.
The sad thing is that, while people are dealing responsibly with the issues behind the scenes, the reaction by some on this forum has been noted by people from all the surrounding areas - see http://sydenham.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.p...e66cd971ec 'whinging', 'moan and criticise anything', 'dull bitch fest', 'Is it because I's Black'. That is what people think of us.
