Subject: RE: Folk Music On PBS
I'm just teasing too Guest. I do think it does have a lot to do with where you live. I define diversity as a sharing of culture, race, religion and lifestyle. Here in the NYC area, Northern New Jersey specifically, I feel that there are numerous ethnic communities that flourish and share their culture. Heritage, art, history and culture are celebrated - and we are only minutes away from NYC.
Malls? Well they are convenient, but I do try to support local business. Unfortunately it is a sign of the times.
The SUV? Well, I suppose it isn't great for the environment, but neither was my oil burning gas guzzler that I previously drove. It is very handy though!
I still like beer over wine! And my definition of folk music is very complex too!
