[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 899816, member: 60724"] Todd, Nope, I don't hate NY. Furthermore, having been born, raised, and lived there for 33 years I can't say I actually know what New York "stands for". There are states that claim to stand for things (live free or die; etc), but New York has no such proclamation of which I am aware. I do know that NY is a huge dichotomy, what with the very different cultures and attitudes between "upstate" and "downstate." I was born and raised in central NY (upstate), but I moved for a job once out of college to Westchester County (downstate). I don't miss the cut-throat nature of downstate NY at all...make a buck, make a buck, even if it means stepping over (or on) people. It might also surprise you that it's not that way everywhere. I'm impressed by the actual civility and morality that is displayed by most people in much of this great country of ours. The metro-suburban sections of the northeast are pretty much dog-eat-dog. It's not like that everywhere. It doesnt have to be like that there, either, IMHO. Furthermore, I don't subscribe to the notion that it is basic human nature to lie, cheat, or steal. I simply do not. I suspect I am in the minority on that belief though. Its good to talk about morality without getting emotional. I appreciate that. TJR [/QUOTE]
