Well, here comes my two cents...;) I've said it before and I'll no doubt say
it again, but one man's "red sauce on pastry dough" (as one poster
put it) is another man's tasty snack.  I've lived in the
Maryland/DC/Baltimore area for over 20 years, and you can rest
assured that Ledo's is *not* the only pizza I've tried.  I love
"NY Style", I love "Chicago Style", and I love Ledo's.  I don't
love it because I consider it representative of *anything*, but
because - hold on to your hats - I think it's *tasty*!! It's
unlike any other kind of pizza, and I think that's a good thing.
People who love it, I think, recognize its uniqueness; I've never
known anyone who was a fellow fan to enjoy it simply because
it was the only pizza they'd ever tried (which, in 1994, is
*extremely* unlikely).  When I'm in the mood for pizza, sometimes
I'm in the mood for 3 Bros, and other times I'm in the mood
for Ledo's.  

Dc.dining denizens will no doubt never come to an agreement on
this issue, but that's what makes life interesting, eh?
