maps are primarily for travel on roads, not for local boosterism

You are obviously not well versed on Atlanta and its environs. Cast aspersions if you must but you show a lack of character when you do
|
Excuse me? All I am doing is pointing that ego is driving this thread more than reality.
Your comments show a lack of character and class, but full of ignorance.

You do realize that no one is treating the atlas comments seriously except for you, don't you?
That's some attitude you're carrying around.

I am merely pointing out that most posts are worked up about irrational and irrelevant things.

I wish ADC would offer maps in the smaller/thicker spiral book format as the Hudson and King's guides for the Twin Cities. The larger (in width and height) ADC books are a lot harder to use, IMO.

My sister used to do this very same thing to me when we were 10....some people call it parroting...whatever you call it - very mature...
Do you seriously believe that last statement? MOST posts are simply part of calm, rational discussions.

In case anyone hasn't figured it out by now...this person loves to hang around the Atlanta threads and take jabs at the city anytime he gets a chance. I mean, I understand that there is NOTHING going on where he is, but this is just ugly. "Ignore" has served me well in this case.
