Cleveland's Inferiority Complex

It took me about 15 minutes to decide with part of Frank Mills' essay at Urban Dialect it wanted to excerpt. I feel like I'm doing you a disservice by only highlighting this much. I implore you to read the entire thing:

"When our leadership displays its inability to keep up with the times; when our city�s marketing machine fails to keep us (or others) informed of what�s good about our city; when our media focuses on what�s wrong; it becomes easy to see how many Clevelanders develop an inbred inferiority complex about our city. It�s just as easy to see why those who are not born and raised here � and are not impeded by the effects of this inferiority complex � are able to live, work and thrive here."

I can pretty much guarantee that this will be the topic of the next coffee klatch, if Frank shows up. We'll be meeting at Lucky's Cafe, 777 Starkweather Ave in Tremont at 5:30PM.
