But, that's another discussion.ellesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15325851120856048298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-53507899054672468822007-10-24T23:18:00.000-04:002007-10-24T23:18:00.000-04:00No it really isn't because I'm leaving.

I've been making dragging my innocent blog readers through this issue for a long long time.<BR/><BR/>I wouldn't argue with anyone who still sees the East Village as a counter cultural stronghold of sorts.
