"What's dignity got to do with this?"

Actually, I was trying to use 19th and 20th century satire as regards family lines and connections. Great people always move in special circles of genius eventually. E has greatness in her. I think she needs to write. Will she? I cannot answer...

You and Solon have convinced me that the four star hotel is not only vulgar, but actually inferior to those with fewer stars. I spit on them. I shall insist on being transferred to a hotel with as few amenities as possible. Best will be if the neighborhood in which the humble shelter I shall seek (inspired the humility of you and Solon), is located is also at least unpleasant, and preferably actually dangerous.

Does anyone have any recommendations for execrable restaurants? I hear that if one isn't on one's guard one can find in Barcelona really quite superb cuisine.
