It is not as bad as most people imagine. In fact, it was quite nice when I was there. I once considered opening a flight school there so I could be the flight instructor from Hell. Possibly even manufacturing a light aircraft that would be called the Bat, so people could fly a Bat out of Hell. But the population is very small and probably would not support such enterprises. They have a post office (which postmarks your mail with big red letters saying "HELL") and they sell t-shirts and the like. The "Wish You Were Here" postcard is very popular. -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor
