Okay, this is a stunt to get people to post.

But it's also a good stunt.

Today in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette there is an article about a fashion designer who has made T-Shirts commemorating the city's neighborhoods.

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07120/782092-314.stm

For instance, Sq. Hill, which is the Jewish neighborhood in Pittsburgh- says

Squirell Hill- "Keeping it Kosher since 1927" (which was about the year many of the Jewish people moved to the neighborhood from the Hill District neighborhood, but I digress).

Pt. Breeze- "Fricking Fabulous since 1903"- Henry Clay Frick- get it? The Frick Art Center is in Pt. Breeze.

Well, I was wondering- if we were going to do this for neighborhoods in the Tri-Cities, like the Tree Streets, or Sherwood Forest, or Keystone, or places in Kingsport or Bristol or any of the smaller towns- let me know.

I was thinking "Carnegie- Keeping Andy's Industrial Vision Alive Since 1901"- but that's just me.

By the way, if the year in which the place's cultural flavor was started happens to coincide with a year in which the Pirates won the pennant, that seems to work the best.
