The players vs the owners. Which side are you on? The fans. Which is why I haven't seen a MLB game since 1994. They have done nothing to include the fans.

In the 2nd travelogue you showed one of the worst things in my country - Poland and other post-Soviet countries (= half of the globe) that is such monster buildings when people must live packed together! Interesting baseball trvg as well!

Enjoyed both your intro and your baseball page. What do you think of interleague play? Worse than domes IMO >:-(

One of the best pages on the United States to be found anywhere in American letters.

Did you HAVE to include Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance? Let Phaedrus die.
