Philadelphia is still my favorite. It's ground zero for the death of the west. It's one of places America first started, and it's one of the places it first failed. It also helps I was born here on the day of the Mummer's parade. <BR/><BR/>But when I read the Evola quote, "However, in contrast to your opinion, I see nothing but a world of ruins, where a kind of front line is possible only in the catacombs."
