New York vs. London

This week's New York Magazine has a series of articles comparing New York to London and which one is hipper/better. Now I suppose this is a good way to sell magazines (and some of the articles did turn up on my Google News searches), but if you are truly cool, aren't you supposed to not care?

I mean, if one of the Denver papers actually did an article saying, "Who is cooler, Denver or ....?" it would confirm to the world our inferiority complex. If we are hip enough, we aren't supposed to care what anyone thinks.

Table of Contents -- March 26, 2007 Issue of New York Magazine: An extensive examination of London’s challenge to our city’s global preeminence. From finance, to fashion, to urban planning, to music and even restaurants, should New Yorkers be minding the world’s-greatest-city gap more carefully?
