Wednesday night on the quiz show "Jeopardy" Dundee, Scotland, was one of the answers. in the question, er, i mean answer, they said it was a steel town. i was wondering if that is one of the reasons why it has a "reputation" as being a rather dank place? here in the US, towns and cities that are traditionally "industrial" with steel mills, or car factories, or mines, have a sort of gray and sad essence to them, and aren't exactly hotbeds of art and culture. well, that isn't as much the case now as it was say, 25 years ago, but the "reputation" still follows these places. in light of the past discussions on the working class, and Dundee, etc. this seemed relevant to me. anyhoo, i was just wondering. christa in my stomach: pineapple, strawberries, and 'lemon lift' tea +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
