>>So how many people will need to get from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh in half an hour?<<

Worse, how many people WANT to go from Pittsburgh to Philly in ANY length of time?

“Worse, how many people WANT to go from Pittsburgh to Philly in ANY length of time?”

I have never been to either but I did know some great guys from Pennsylvania back in my Navy days. Judging from comments on this forum I would imagine that anyone who could see how I live in SC would possibly NEVER want to go back to Pittsburgh or Philadelphia.
I have driven through the state from South to North on an interstate highway ending up in Erie, Pa and I was amazed by all the expanses of wide open country and when stopping for gas I saw what could have been groups of good old boys in the Carolinas or Georgia wearing Carhartt and driving 4WD pickups. I was tempted to stop and ask if there were any openings for an old mule skinner from the cradle of the confederacy. I have known three or four men in my life who were actually named John Hancock and one was a country boy from Pennsylvania, we were barracksmates on Treasure Island and both wound up in Keflavik, Iceland. We were not best buddies but I have not forgotten him, he was real people of the best sort.
