@designphile: I'm in Richmond too! I had the same thoughts, so the confirmation is good. Now I'm thinking about what I would have taken pictures of around town...

Don't shoot the messenger people! Rebecca did say things like "a common view" and "many men," not 'GIRLS RULE AND BOYS DROOL!' If it's really that upsetting to you, write to The Simpsons producer...
