"but I'd take most European cities in a heartbeat.....largely due to the citizens...."

I actually prefer Paris, but not for the French whom I could do without. London is also great and the English are great. Havnt been to Germany but found the Swiss a litlle aloof.
By the way I said NORTH AMERICA not in the world. -g-

well said jr

I especially like the part about the trees dying to get out<gg>

I don't care how much money this country's cities are built on, and I do love the freedom and beauty of the USA, but walking down the streets of a place like Rome, it's not hard to realize that you just can't buy that kind of atmosphere, history and pure essence and beauty.

U.S cities have a good start...but a looong way to go.

Enjoy the day,
