I know what you mean, I consider the entire L.A. basin an entity foreign to me and detrimental to my physical and mental health. It is to be avoided at all costs, only to be visited when circumstances dictate every 3-4 years or so. L.A. is not representative of all California, I am a Central Coast kind of guy. ;-) -- Regards, Savageduck |
