    1. Hey... read this.

      Then, pause. Breath, rest, repeat, then comment. Or... don't.
      New York City Hall is what I wrote.
      It's what the source material says.
      It's you who jumped on this, not me, so - chill - the - hell - out.
      I'm not even over reacting, you guys commenting are jumping to see who can be the first to criticize.
      Knock it off.

    1. New York City Hall
      That does not say New York City, Hall
      it doesn't say New York, City Hall
      it doesn't say New, York City Hall
      it says what someone in 1936 noted with the photo, that it was New York City Hall
      Do I need you to point out to me that it's not NYC? Seriously?
      "This is Syracuse NY, not New York City... "
      NO.
      When I was a younger guy, there was a saying in common use.
      It was often used to point out that no one is a fucking retard.
      No fucking duh.
      That's about as clear as the photo not showing NYC.
      I could tell you how to write a comment in a way that isn't "confrontational" but some other know it all decided I AM that guy.
      If YOU want to inform ME, get a blog. Fill it in with content.
      Other useful information... yes, true, you did that and it was kindly done.
      Thank you.
      but you began with an instant button pusher. It's OBVIOUSLY criticizing. Why? Because it says, IT'S THIS not THAT.
      Well, I didn't say it was THAT, so, it's inherently critical, and telling me I'm stupid, and making mistakes, and you're correcting me.
      Correcting... there's the key.
      I was not wrong, the phrase "New York City Hall" isn't spot on, but it's not wrong either. It doesn't need correcting. I do not need correcting. Why? I DIDN'T CALL IT NYC City Hall.
      Now, From now on, don't comment. That suits me just fine. Right as rain. Perfectly content to not get commentary. Didn't ask for it. Don't need it. Can live without it.
      I'm not here to read commentary.
      BUT SOMEHOW, too many people are thinking I need to be told what I get wrong. When I didn't. ENOUGH. There are links provided for a couple reasons, and there are a bunch of yahoos RIGHT HERE TOO.
      You may not be one, but today, you stepped in it. Why?
      Because 2 other people were dogpiling on with you to "inform" me. Day after fucking day.
