"the ambitious folk" sounds odd to me. Tom Send a noteboard - 26/04/2011 06:55:40 PM
There are old folks, and folk songs, and folksy things, but using it with "ambitious" or "young" or "popular" is sort of like saying you're buying "a new davenport".

That having been said, I generally agree with your statements about New York.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
