The uptown/downtown distinction has always been classist, and in the immortal words of that famed Japan-lover/basher Karel van Wolferen, "nowhere more so than in Japan". Yama-no-te and all that. The least classist usage is the one you describe, where downtown is the commercial district where you can just wander in and there will be a reason you'll find to be there, and the opposite of downtown is "everywhere else," where you need to know why you're going there to want to go there. BTW, unlike Stuart, I like the class distinction. I find out where "uptown" is, and then go anywhere else. :-) Unless I'm going to the opera. :-) :-) I wonder if there's a Debian CD with all these golden oldies on it? That would be cool! (Oh, sorry, Josh, forgot the C&C again, did I?)
