    LOL you know something like 95% of the country is urban or suburban. In my case I am from what is probably the most urban place on the planet possible exception parts of Tokyo.

    If you are going to lash out blindly, you should at least use a little intelligence (assuming it's available to you) to make certain the odds are on your side.

    I was just talking to a friend from the U.K. this morning. His take on the state of London is a little different than yours, seeing as he no longer feels safe going to large parts of the city.

    I see you reference Sagan. You do realize he faked the Nuclear Winter research to drive a political agenda which if it had of prevailed would have left the world in considerably worse shape than it is now. Something to think about the next time you wish to substitute your biases for facts of reasoning.
