I agree about not liking many things north of ponce. Unless I'm going to work, the boundary is firmly set at 17th...there are still useful places (Peidmont park, high museam, Ga Tech football, my barber) north of ponce, but once you pass 17th you might as well give up trying to find something cool. Thanks James.

If you don't put Atlanta Ga. on your return address, you ain't in Atlanta. I guess i'm more of an itp snob.

When do I "feel" like I am in Atlanta,though? When do I feel like I'm "home"? Still, probably the perimeter, but maybe when I hit 575 and 985, or GA 316. I don't go on I-20 or south of the city enough to have such landmarks. Being the in-town snob that I am, the furthest I could say that "Atlanta" is is I-285.
