Oh. I see, truly. But it led to FReepers attacking our fair city yet again. They all think it’s a hellhole straight out of “Taxi Driver” when, in fact, it’s an OK place. Why, as somebody who works here, would you be surprised that Koreatown in Manhattan is shabby?

Well even if I wrote a total puff-piece about NYC, the same folks would come out of woodwork to attack the city (witness every single pro-Apple thread that Swordmaker puts up). They would still come here to state that they would never set foot in that city under any circumstances.

I don't think we are going to win them over either way.

But people still buy billions of dollars in Apple products and from the numbers of people I see in the city whenever I come in on the weekends, it is in no danger of losing its popularity as a premier destination for tourists.
