Silly London
The final chapter, horray! Anyway, this chapter talks about modern-day London. The chapter discusses the different opinions of Londoners; from people who believe that the growing Islamic community is dangerous, that the transportation system is horrid and the crime rate too high, to people who believe that the city has never been better or brighter. I'm looking forward to going there to find things out for myself; I'm sick of merely reading people's opinions about things I'm about to see. I want to see them for myself! The author distastes the Americanization of London and gives several examples as to why he dislikes them. I guess I can understand where he's coming from; I think that I would find it annoying if my city's administration was replacing classic places with new, foreign, uninteresting places.
