Rocko, I enjoyed that read. Thanks for doing a little clean up here and there. I'm really surprised the streetlights are out on Woodward between Hart Plaza and Campus Martius. God forbid a commuter should feel comfortable attending a Hart Plaza festival on a Friday night and leaving their car in the office garage [[i.e. walking back up Woodward in the dark). There's a suggestion for the thread on improving Detroit's reputation in there somewhere.

And hey, count your blessings, 7 years ago, I'd get $96 meter-expired tickets in the Bronx. I don't even want to know what they're charging in Manhattan nowadays. When I got to Detroit and started getting $10 tickets, I just cracked a smile.
