City people! Ha! I've lived in NJ since 70 (came from da Bronx, Maggie
note it's not 'the' is 'da' ;-). But I'm both a NY'r (but not to
NY'rs) and from Jersey (but not to those form NJ). And we still need
to be wary of road apples in this part of the state. Not a nice
smell after a long day's bike ride.
