On the subject of doing one's homework before bloviating, it needs to  
be stated that the MOC is located in Court End, which was constructed  
as one of the high-end neighborhoods in Richmond. Although the  
housing is now largely subsumed under the ownership and management of  
the Medical College of VA (now VCU), the area can hardly be described  
as a ghetto, nor could it in the past.

So then one has to ask as to the point of the missive, other than to  
pour gasoline on the flames of what sounds like bigotry? If that was  
the intent, please don't bother to post. If not, please explain.
