The New York Times gets into the act with a sorrowful portrait of the race and class divisions of the city. I would hope this would open eyes, but I am sure it won't. Never has to much information, so freely offered, been so ignored. Scalzi offers us a beautiful view of what things us middle class people take for granted. That's why I like blogs- we can reach at least the upper crust in developed countries with views of compassion, love, and knowledge.
