Have you actually done anything that resembles true

Or is what you're saying purely anecdotal?

What I say about the death rate is purely anecdotal and I
know it.

That's true across the country. The drop-out rate is bad in
places like you wouldn't expect in rural areas.

You have yet to verify that you really have any contact
with those kinds of people. I do because I'm part
of that professional community. And the retention rate
is a lot better than you think it is. How many scientists,
educators, doctors, lawyers, business people, tech(internet)
people do you actually know or come in direct contact with
day-after-day?

Why are *you* here? I mean, really... pool all of your resources
and get out. Just move. Don't whine about how you can't do it.
You *can* do it if you really wanted to. If you can travel
to other places you can *move* to other places. So get on with
it and stop attacking Phila.

Ugh how you going to get that evidence, Karen, they don't want to scare 
people. I said I can think of tens of experiements which would prove this. 
The facts that most studies don't prove or do comparisons based on state or 
clean air should tell you something. I think though someone has done the 
research if you can find it.. I think Sperlings list of cities at some point 
showed Philadelphia with more cancer and heart disease, then average 
city.Face it Karen, have you ever gone to my links to show proof, or do you 
just come back saying its not happening five months later and you need more 
proof.?

God Karen, so we are not number one!  We are near the top in ratio of 
violence per population. look who is number one then? The city with the most 
particulates..lol  !!!!!!!

Philly more then any city needs people who live here to get an understanding 
what they are giving their families. I said this before, when I am gone I 
will complain because I see what people will get even if they are not aware 
of it : POISONED and MORE POLLUTION then most places in America and more 
violence, and more asthma and asthma deaths and more asthma for kids, and 
most drs in USA to treat asthma and finally I dare anyone to compare our 
percentage of advertisers who are in health care.
