Megalopolis
 
Today I had the oportunity to use the word "megalopolis" in a sentance. I
was responding to a friend's email and a WW II pilot.  He grew up in New
Jersey. I was telling him about how Staten Island was when my parents grew
up there.  They were also of his generation, but on the younger side of the
WW II vets. I was able to use the word megalopolis. Just goes to show that a
TAGS education is indeed worth every penny.
 
 
"I bet those towns in NJ were nice country towns when you were a kid. My
parents moved us up to the country for the better schools, and especially
since they remember having a country atmosphere on Staten Island when they
were kids. It was quickly becoming a megalopolis. My mother wanted us to
have a country atmosphere and we did. "
