Jeeze, I don't know about that.  We get the New York Times and I read 
the real estate section.  Seems pretty pricey for a little condo in 
Manhattan.  However, when you get out of the city and move out to 
Conneticut [sp??] it looks a little better.

I wasn't trying to make a dig about the rusted cars thing, but my 
impression is that they salt the roads and this takes a toll on cars.  
However, my wife's parents have nice cars that don't exhibit such 
problems so perhaps it is just a stereotype.
Now, let's see, what stereotypes can I find about Pittsburg??  ;-)
"I used to have a girlfriend whose parents lived in Pittsburg and . . 
blah . . .blah . . . ."
