h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I grew up in Cincinnati. This entry is pretty good, I'd suggest it could be an editted entry.

You should maybe mention Cincinnati Chili, and the various museums.

I too grew up in the Queen City (a reference not mentioned), enjoy eating goetta (another unmentioned reference), and liked rooting for the Bearcats (still another unmentioned reference). On the whole, I'd say this entry is pretty incomplete, and somewhat misleading. For one, it seems that the author has not even attempted to ride the Metro bus system, which, as far as midsized midwestern cities go, is pretty darn decent. Further, I would even dispute the population statistics given - the city proper is around 200-250,000, and I would guess that the suburbs have at least 4-5 times that many people. I'd say this entry needs some serious additions and improvements before it should be considered for editing.

I stand by my statement on Cincinnati & public transportation. If you think Cincinnati's bus service is ok, you've not ridden mass transit in larger cities enough.

If nothing else, the proof is in the budget, which has been cut, or at best not raised, consistently for years.
