Nobody would expose themselves in the same city where they went to high school and where they work. The exception is the strippers who often have nice balcony positions on Bourbon Street. But they aren't terribly squeamish about nudity. When I lived in Southern California, I often saw women breast-feeding their babies at such public locations as the zoo, SeaWorld, Balboa Park, etc. I've never seen any breast feeding in New Orleans...it just wouldn't seem right, not out on public. When Feli and I were shooting the Lower 9th Ward, both of us were struck by how many churches there were in the area. They were converted houses and didn't hold many people. So there was sometimes two churches on one city block., maybe one every 150 feet. Our biggest problem is drugs. Of the several hundred murders every year, nearly all are drug-related. -- Jeffery ---- Daniel Ridings <dlridings@gmail.com> wrote: > On 2/28/07, Jeffery Smith <jsmith342@cox.net> wrote: > > but this city is no more a den of > > immortality than any other large, old urban setting in America. > > Crap, Jeffery.
