SUMMERSM343.......My ALL CAPS response was an attempt at "Tounge In Cheek Sarcasim" based on the above post from that guy, whom like many other Philly bashers start with the same old & tired cliches about the city. Your pictures are nice and shows that Philadelphia isn't just a bigger version of Baltimore or smaller version of the Bronx or somewhere, it's the center of a big thriving metropolis that's been improving in a many ways over the last 15 years but people who think like this poster just can't comprehend it nor get past the city's past of the late 70's to early 90's....
