Sheesh. And now we're back to the "mine is the one true way" pizza 
snobbery that caused me to start this thread---only now it's 
Italian snobbishness, not New York City or Chicago. 

Funny thing too. I've always figured one of the advantages of NYC 
style pizza is that you can bend the slice slightly down the 
middle and eat it one handed. A big plus if you're scurrying 
around like a New Yorker.
