I'm not disagreeing with him. He stated that Dallas is "pretty clean" and posted a video "proving" it. I watched the video and saw nothing whatsoever about the city's cleanliness. So I'm asking him to clarify his comments. Where in that video does it say anything about cleanliness of Dallas? He made the statement, and I'm not going to "let it go" (much to your chagrin) until he answers the question. Or maybe you can answer if for him: where in that video does it suggest Dallas is clean?

Answer the question, and I'll "let it go". Easy as that.




Inevidebly?
That video has nothin to do with Dallas' cleanliness. I made a statement and I just posted a video about Dallas. BTW the Dallas Chamber of Commerce didn't make that video! A person made it.

Please tell me how that puff video piece suggests that Dallas is "pretty clean" like you said previously. What part of that video says anything about cleanliness. Please answer this question. What part of the video should I be washing wrt cleanliness?

The point is the way you assert yourself is vendetta like for Dallas and you don't know as much about it as you think you do. Add to that the fact "I'm not going to let it go until he answers the question" well you might as well just shoot yourself in the foot because it denotes you're incapable of having a civil discussion.

Dallas is pretty clean too!

Look at this video
That suggests to me that I should look at the video to see how clean Dallas is. That is what you implied. And put together by the Chamber of Commerce or not, it is clearly a puff piece.

To the contrary, I just wanted him to answer the question. I do not have a vendetta for Dallas, and I'm more than capable of having a civil discussion. He finally has said that the video has nothing to do with cleanliness. But that's not how his initial comment read.

You seem to have a personal vendetta against me. That's the only vendetta I've seen in this thread.

As far as downtown shopping, there's no comparison. Downtown Dallas has nothing like CORE SHOPPING (http://www.coreshopping.ca/directory.php - broken link) or Stephen Avenue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Please name the upscale stores. Dallas has alot of them. Dallas has the most shopping centers per capita than any city in America.

Don't flatter yourself. The way you demand an answer to the question just so you can provoke him some more is what is immature and uncivil. Also saying Dallas is dirty and uninteresting, and so are its people. Come on now. Get real. That's just smacktalk. And then you say you're the recipient of a vendetta, Yah OK.

Holt Renfew is just as upscale as Neiman Marcus. And Calgary has "Gap, Banana Reublic, Old Navy, and H&M" too. And it has them downtown. You don't have to go to some suburban-styled auto-oriented mall to access them.

I demanded an answer to the question because he made many posts without answering it. I wasn't provoking him. I was asking for an answer. So don't flatter yourself either.

I suppose the term "urban hippy" would imply that they are far more uptight and pretentious than traditional hippies.
