I'm not sure I would ever set foot in Detroit or Dallas if I didn't have to, so good on you for dealing with them.

Come to the Train Wreck and you can see Washington DC. :biggrin:

Detroit hosts the NAIAS (auto show) every January. I've been there for that, but we didn't spend the night. :?

Hey folks, I know emotions are going to be running high in this situation, but nonetheless the staff will have step in at some point if the name-calling, personal attacks, and the like continue, so please cool it down. Thanks.

Indeed. :cheers:

Y'know what Boston is even more notorious for? Turning out a lot of top-level academics. Harvard, MIT, etc... Boston has long been one of the premier college towns in the world.
And yet the t still closes at midnight!

The green careening planet
spins blindly in the dark
so close to annihilation.

Sorry to hear that, Twofy. :console:
Glad you are OK Twofy but sorry about this ghastly business.

Violence is a very bad way to solve problems. I wonder what idiot felt this would help their cause.
They've got a Saudi under hospital arrest so my guess is Afghanistan....or Iraq? :think:
Saudi, you say? Let's invade Iran!

A thought just occurred. What imagery and iconography do they use in OZ at Easter? Here the religious stuff is very minor now and everything is about Spring - daffodils, bunnies, and of course eggs. Given it is the start of your autumn...?
