It's about a 62 mile difference, New York being 62 miles closer and 30 minutes closer. But that doesn't matter. This isn't between New York and Philly, this is about the fact that NYC is the greatest city in the world.
London = finance
Paris = fashion
Los Angeles = film
DC = politics
Rome = history
New York = finance, international affairs, fashion, diversity, food, comedy, media, music, politics, history, sports, nightlife, and density all blended in to form the Greatest City in the World
Thanks. That's all I need is a 15 year old telling me what to think of as the greatest city in the world...Great.

I'm 18 years old. And I've lived in London over my whole summer vacation before. I've been to Paris, Tokyo, Osaka, Rome, Naples (yeah Italy), Germany, Croatia, Jamaica, the Netherlands, and many more.
It's obvious you couldn't beat my argument so you point fingers at my age to attempt to shut me up. Reality is I been to more places than you... I'm 99.9% sure of that.
We've got a trip to Moscow planned for mid-January of this coming year.

You're younger than most posters here, but I think your opinions are pretty legit since you've been so many places and therefore have experienced/seen a lot. I really can't stand how so many people dismiss peoples' opinions even though they're younger. I'm 24, probably a little younger than most people on the board, and I've gotten similar negative comments like you get. You can't dismiss a person's experiences based on their ages.
I bet he's traveled more than most of the people on this board. I haven't been to as many places as he has, but I've traveled many places since i played the closest I could to women's professional hockey.
Not to go OT, but I also find it unfair to discount someone's opinions because of their age. Young people often have interesting and inciteful things to say..

People aren't dismissing you because of your age, people are dismissing you because your posts come off as provincial, naive, and arrogant.
