I agree with you...most LIers do not....grew up inHuntinngton schools...oh the horror!...this discussion started w claims that places like where I live are not diverse which is 100% untrue and with that diversity we have no fear of the schools in the area....my claim is that any area of LI that is truly heterogeneous gets thrashed here on a regular basis. you and I agree that going to such a school is beneficial and it is one of the reasons we moved where we did.

Well..., it's not. Just where do you think people are moving to "down there" where it's 90 for six months out of the year? Way to garab hold of an inaccurate perception and beat it to death.

I'm agreeing 100 %. So true...I was educated( well sort of) on L.I. and If I wrote anything like my parents I would have fail miserably.

A lot of what she says makes no sense

I posted something about the OBI in the old restaurants of LI thread. Google wasnt even around then. Why would I bother coming into this thread to talk about Long Island if I didnt live here ever?

Okay, I know I said I was done, but I just wanted to pop in to say that there is no amount of Googling that could pull off the amount of information about Long Island that Jdawg posts (even if I disagree with a lot of it ).

Okay, I'm back out now
