Dan - <br />How you described Memphis isn't too far afield than what parts of Newark resembled in the '60s, esp. after the unfortunate riots. And when Utica, NY embarked on an "urban renewal" (sic) campaign almost a half century ago and after all the mills closed down and moved south and later offshore, they tore down a lot of older very seedy parts of town, and took longer to rebuild them than the DOT in North Carolina takes to pave a highway - a big joke in that State, since it takes the NC DOT years to simply widen a five mile stretch of road as any NC resident will attest to - in fact - modeling such a scene accurately (in NC) would have one guy digging with a shovel, five other workers staring into the hole, and three or four bosses standing around totally disinterested slurping on their Mountain Dew. <br />BILL
