I would love to see a series of articles about NIMBYS that failed and their feelings on the thing they were opposing today, now that it happened. I suspect more than a few would admit they just got over it and moved on.

I wonder how many people opposed the building of that airport.

The tricky thing is that a lot of the really militant people are old so by the time the thing finally gets built they're not around anymore.

It's 100% this. After a decade of fighting nimby's I'd say that outside of a smaller group of young left-nimbies, most are retired seniors. Most of the long term neighbourhood plans and projects they oppose won't even be done before they most likely die. Its wild.
