<p>It seems you have a history with making sweeping generalizations and statements you know nothing about (Cornell's student body, MCS, etc). That is fine since the whole point is to educate people. Though Pittsburgh is still "broke", it is getting much better than what it was during the transition from the old industrial age to the contemporary city you see today. </p>
<p>Also, hopefully the links will help people find hotels and accomodations as well as things to do during their orientation at Carnegie Mellon (I know I had some trouble picking out the right hotel for my parents to stay in as well as find places to visit during the first couple days). </p>
<p>Unless you want to disprove anything I've said (perhaps the site was wrong about certain companies being in Pitts?) I think your past history speaks for itself.</p>
