Response to Allen

After reading the comments posted by Allen, the elitist who misspells simple, basic words, I feel a need to respond. Orlando is a cultureless backwater, plain and simple, so set aside your sneering arrogance. Orlando has the best restaurants in the world? Uh-huh. New York, San Francisco, Paris...what do these cities have that could possibly compare to the epicurean delights to be found in Orlando, Florida?
Your mention of "good" schools is puzzling; I find it hard to believe that you attended such schools yourself, considering your inability to discern the differences between "then" and "than" and "your" and "you're."
Not all of the negative comments about Orlando solely regarded the cost of living. Many complained of the bland, characterless collection of highways, strip malls, parking lots, and mass-produced "McHouses" that this "city" consists of. This setup results in nightmare traffic, and ridiculously long drives to get anywhere. It will also prove to be tragic when the price of gasoline really shoots through the roof.
Looking to live in a vibrant, exciting place that's heading in the "right direcion?" Try Manhattan, Brooklyn, San Francisco, Boston, Washington, or Chicago. Forget about Orlando, a backwater place that is no place.
