NORTH ADAMS "HOME PAGE"

Good morning people...Well, the elections are over,... wasn't that fun!?... Congratulations to all the winners... Now we can get back to some sort of normalcy here in cyber land...and speaking of such...what happened to the "North Adams Home Page"? I know we use to have one. I would think that if a city (town) is trying to attract attention, the very basic tool in today's world, is a presents in cyber space. A "HOME PAGE" is a portal to not only visitors, but an information medium for the citizenry. A city hall in cyber space!... Information needed!... It's Your Dime!

Why is it you insist on referring to North Adams as a "city (town)" all the time? Just because it is the smallest "city", it is still a city. Get over it....

It is one of those make-believe things that is but isn't really...liken to the unimployment rate(when someone runs out of benefits they magically disappear form the face of the earth as well as the work force rolls, there-by making the unimployment rate look better, even though the person is still unimployed)(if you don't count the temporary students that arn't real residents but only transients, you only have a town)...get over it.

Wiki Says:
The difference between towns and cities is differently understood in different parts of the English speaking world. There is no one standard international definition of a city: the term may be used either for a town possessing city status; for an urban locality exceeding an arbitrary population size; for a town dominating other towns with particular regional economic or administrative significance.

The distinction between a town and a city similarly depends on the approach adopted: a city may strictly be an administrative entity which has been granted that designation by law, but in informal usage, the term is also used to denote an urban locality of a particular size or importance: whereas a medieval city may have possessed as few as 10,000 inhabitants, today some consider an urban place of fewer than 100,000 as a town, even though there are many officially designated cities that are very much smaller than that.
