L2S, <Is Detroit really that bad that they can't sell houses for $500?!?!? That's unbelievable> In some places, yes. Free would not be cheap enough. Detroit is the armpit of America. I planning to escape soon, and I'm in the burbs. GT TH

Consider, those houses have probably had all their copper plumbing and electrical wires ripped out, and the walls ripped open to get to them.
