The OP is one of the most sane, even-tempered and respected members of the Atlanta forum. That simply is not his style.

Perhaps if you lived on our end, you would realize why he posted it. We take a LOT of collective heat from many of your former neighbors (please notice I said many, not all by any means).

Thanks, john...!


That's why I said "interesting article." tpk, what johnatl said about "collective heat" is correct...

Consider this article from a few short years ago (it was already posted earlier on this thread, but I'll post it again for your convenience). Make sure read it thoroughly...

I have nothing against NYC and NY.

I like NYC and NY.

And I think NYCers and other NYers make a positive contribution to Atlanta overall.


NYC is unmatched in the U.S. and the world.
