Yeah, people in New York think everything that exists in the universe happens 
in New York, or should. And if it doesn't, what's the point? It's interesting 
to see the effects of this attitude on people from outside New York. You should 
have seen the reverence on the faces of some of my fellow teenage CAJEniks from 
Utah when I, in passing, mentioned The City.

Not to mention how sorry everyone feels for me when I say where I live...
