Another famous hip hop wordsmith once penned a saying that reminds me about the trinity of cities you call the pillars of western white civilization. NY, London and Paris.

"Same s***, Different Toilet"

talk about perfect.

I don't think the Bay Area crossed Pippa's mind.

Unreasonable is a different thing...I'd rather a discussion be controversial and unreasonable, but interesting and informative, than totally reasonable and boring. As this one has been.
Great, but what are the youtube posts or AT Kearney posts that I made. I haven't made any of those. I've repeatedly said this is meaningless without an actual rubric to argue upon and that NYC/Tri-State Area is obviously much more influential and economically powerful.

Has he started doing that thing where he claims basically everything between Portland and Santa Barbara is "SF/The Bay Area" yet?
I think he should be appointed in some sort of promo role by the SF city government. Talk about motivated.

That doesn't "prove" NYC's significance. I think its massive GDP, political, cultural and financial institutions, and status as a global media center do that. I just think Will and Kate being in New York--in Brooklyn at that--with Jay and B. is cool.

We've got the fun, bubble gum pop culture stuff. But then we've also got the Kennedy School, SAIS, LSE crowd too. It's like combining the wonkiness, intellectualism and gravitas of Washington, DC and Boston with the glitz and glamor of Los Angeles and Miami. All rolled into the most urban environment in the country.

The Council on Foreign Relations is also in NYC. Foreign Affairs magazine is published here.

Council on Foreign Relations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Outside of Washington, DC, there is no other body so instrumental in shaping U.S. foreign policy.
