The utopian dream of the Catholic town

Would you live in Ave Maria, the first town in America to be run according to strict Catholic principles? Tom Monaghan, the founder of the Domino's Pizza chain, is creating the town 90 miles northwest of Miami.

I'm familiar with Tom Monaghan only through the students I know at Ave Maria College, which the town is being built around. Judging from my brief visit and the stories the students tell me, I would rather live in London, Oceania and have Big Brother watching me!

Here lies W. C. Fields. I would rather be living in Philadelphia.
