Out of curiousity, just how many people on this board are living in Philladelphia or the suburbs here, including college students just attending school in the area? It seems to me we might have disproportionate representation here.
I'm from South Jersey originally, but I live on the Main Line during the school year.

Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves…We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed.--Ada Louise Huxtable, "Farewell to Penn Station", New York Times editorial, 30 October 1963

Suburbs here, although it's a ten minute walk to the Frankfurt el that goes into 69th Street.

"The Wire" is the best show in the history of television. Watch it today.

Don't live there any more, but I was born in Abington, since Hatboro doesn't have hospitals. My grandparents are in Lower Gwynedd, and I visit them every couple of years (I alternate between "fun" vacations and "family" vacations). Have an aunt in Cherry Hill, NJ, which might as well be a Philly suburb . I think I have relatives in Upper Darby. My mother's from Hatboro, and my father's from Fishtown. That's about all I can think of to connect me with Philly. Oh, and I prefer Pat's to Geno's.

Why isn’t that ever an issue of politics? Because you don’t live in a democracy. You live in a plutocracy. Money rules.
