Close-knit cities?
Via Ginny, we learn that the NY Times has discovered the Triangle. Coming on the heels of USNWR discovering Durham, i don't know how much more of this being discovered i can handle.
To be honest, it's hard to read past the phrase "close-knit cities," especially after reading, say, the comments in the N&O following the US News top ten story earlier this week.
But kudos to the Scrap Exchange for making the list.
. . . adding, as my friend RH reminds me, there is another college in Durham not mentioned by the NY Times.
TELL North Carolinians you’re heading to the Research Triangle, and they’ll probably ask “Which school are you visiting?” Yet the close-knit cities of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill are marked by more than college bars and hoops fans.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

Comments in the N&O were like -- yeesh.
Re: the NYTimes -- I won't argue with their choices, but do wonder why they routed their traveler from Durham to Raleigh and back on Saturday afternoon. I guess they think that I-40 is an essential part of the experience?
Funny, too, that their sort of reference city is Winston-Salem and not Charlotte.

Glad to see the mainstream media finally writing stories people care about. Too late.
Let's give it up for the Durham haters in Rawley!
Boo!
