The one thing Philly has that no other city has is the biggest New York Infority Complex in the country. Every city has it but Philly being so close living in Nyc's shadow is worse off then Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles etc. New York has a wow factor not philly. Philadelphia is a suburb compared to New York. Now let the comments begin. LOL

LEX commented on 05 Oct 2015

+AZTCrazy Philly's only claim to fame " we started independence blah blah" more then a hundreds of years ago. Its funny how people from Philly always come up with funny ideas to compare it to New York which is and always will be the crown jewel of America. I lived in South Jersey and outside of Philly, and its absurd how you cant keep New York's name out of your mouths. Philly isn't even on the level of L.A. or Chicago. New York has run laps around Philly for a very long time, you guys will never catch up.

Manny Patrick commented on 10 Sep 2015

+AZTCrazy I'm pretty sure New York was the first city in the U.S. to reach 1million people.

LEX commented on 21 May 2015

+Rubber Soul I don't spell check on Youtube only a nerd would point that out. I am a born New Yorker. When it comes to being slow Philly does it the best compared to NYC, Boston, D.C. or any Northeast city.

Rubber Soul commented on 17 May 2015

+LEX I was commenting on your spelling. Tell me what city you live in so I can respond to your comment.

LEX commented on 13 May 2015

+Rubber Soul You replied didn't you. Also New Yorkers are very tough. Philly is thin skinned. Like I just proved.

Rubber Soul commented on 07 May 2015

+LEX Ok, comments begin.What's an "Infority Complex"?

Teri Cristofalo commented on 19 Jan 2015

Philly is awesome!!! after all,it is the city of brotherly love!! everyone has their own opinion! in my opinion, Philadelphia is one of the greatest cities you can live in! i know this because i live there, and to my opinion you cant get much better than Philly. (no offence to other cities) But really, is it wrong to love your city? Anyone who lives in Philly should be proud to live there. I know i am!

SlothGiraffe commented on 07 Jun 2015

That's not an opinion. It's a fact.

Douglas Martinez commented on 15 Jan 2015

Nothing better than SAN FRANCISCO, CA!!! Home of Silicon Valley (world's largest technology corporations)...Now that's something Philadelphia really DOESN'T have! LOL!

Noble1xCarter commented on 24 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 And you also have no factual evidence to prove your argument. Start practicing what you preach.Logic dictates the burden of proof lies in the one making the claim - which is you, because you claim the snow in Philly is black. So go ahead, prove that Philly is the only city you've seen with black snow.

TempleFork10 commented on 24 Jun 2015

+Noble1xCarter No factual evidence to prove your argument, case closed!

Noble1xCarter commented on 23 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 OBJECTION!

TempleFork10 commented on 23 Jun 2015

+Joe Murray Please spare me the don't trash Philly crap! I was born there and so were my parents. No city is above criticism.

Noble1xCarter commented on 22 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 It's mainly the plowing that creates black snow. If you say Philly doesn't plow their streets, they don't have black snow. If other cities don't have black snow, they don't plow their streets.I don't live in Philly, but I know they keep their roads clear. I've also been to New York and Washington (as well as smaller cities), and they've all had black snow.

TempleFork10 commented on 22 Jun 2015

+Noble1xCarter Never have...because other cities actually plow!

Noble1xCarter commented on 19 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 You've never seen black snow in other cities? I'm guessing other cities don't have streets?

Joe Murray commented on 19 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 I've seen brown snow in Philly, Boston, and New York. And I guess humidity is an east cost thing but don't trash Philly just to get your rocks off.

TempleFork10 commented on 17 Jun 2015

+Joe Murray You're also dead wrong about humidity near the ocean. I currently live in Seattle...situated on the Puget Sound...very low humidity during the summers. Humidity is also very low along the Southern California coastline.

TempleFork10 commented on 17 Jun 2015

+Joe Murray No, I worked both in Philly and Boston. I've seen black snow in Philly...never seen snow as dirty in any other city.

Joe Murray commented on 17 Jun 2015

+TempleFork10 snow is brown wherever you have high car traffic and snowfall together so same can be said about Boston or New York. Also I don't mind the humidity. Anywhere near the ocean is most likely going to be humid anyway so there's that

TempleFork10 commented on 15 Jun 2015

+Joe Murray Are you delusional. The summers in Philly stink...hot, humid and sticky! In the winter it's brown snow and cold temperatures.

TempleFork10 commented on 15 Jun 2015

+Noble1xCarter That's true, but they never capitalized on it.

jimboldcerveza commented on 28 Feb 2015

+Noble1xCarter That's alright - If you wanted to find it you'd first have to know that early semiconductors were called transistors. Enjoy - //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_transistor

Noble1xCarter commented on 28 Feb 2015

+jimboldcerveza I've tried Googling it but couldn't find it. I'm not doubting you, I'm just interested in reading more into it.

jimboldcerveza commented on 28 Feb 2015

+Noble1xCarter Where'd I find out where the hardware was developed? At Bell Labs . . . because I've been there. But you don't have to go there to learn about it. If you're from the Bay Area then you must know who the largest employer in Mountain View is. They'll help you find the information you need.

Noble1xCarter commented on 27 Feb 2015

+jimboldcerveza I don't recall hearing that. Where'd you find that out?

jimboldcerveza commented on 27 Feb 2015

+Douglas Martinez Not only was ENIAC developed in Philly but all the hardware for it was developed at Bell Labs. You're welcome.

Joe Murray commented on 14 Feb 2015

So U PENN isn't a major school? The declaration and constitution aren't important to American history? GTFO! Philly is an amazing city and only get underrated because it is so close to NYC. And honestly, outside of night life and Broadway, Philly is better.

Noble1xCarter commented on 18 Jan 2015

+Douglas Martinez Pennsylvania doesn't amount do anything? I guess the country doesn't exist, then, and neither do your rights.Oh, and having best schools mean nothing without the best students. That's why Pennsylvania's average IQ is 6 points higher than California. California's #48 in highest average IQ in the states.Best weather? Sure, if you like droughts lasting years on end, constant wildfires destroying hundreds of thousands of acres of land, and people dying year-round because of heat stroke. Also, California having a GDP of 1.959 trillion, and Russia having 2,096,774, California is the 10th largest economy. Also notice the direct correlation between population of state and GDP. The fact so many people live in California is the main reason California has a high GDP.That's a pretty pathetic list you're talking about. But sure, enough said.

Douglas Martinez commented on 18 Jan 2015

yawn... and even with such invention Pennsylvania still doesn't amount to anything?! California has some of the BEST SCHOOLS IN THE WORLD, best weather, 6ht largest economy IN THE WORLD...list goes on and on... ENOUGH said. ;)

Noble1xCarter commented on 17 Jan 2015

+Douglas Martinez Other than the fact that most of the Silicon Valley companies today are computer-based companies? Apple, Cisco, Ebay ,Facebook, Google, HP, Intel, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Netflix, Oracle, Pandora, Twitter, Yahoo, Zynga, etc. would not exist without the ENIAC. And Silicon Valley would have no importance whatsoever, an that little garage company would have been the start of nothing important.

Douglas Martinez commented on 17 Jan 2015

nah... you're really just dreaming! FYI and according to STANFORD UNIVERSITY (Palo Alto, CALIFORNIA), The rise of Silicon Valley is credited to a STANFORD professor and two of his students: "In 1939, with the encouragement of their professor and mentor, Frederick Terman, Stanford alumni David Packard and William Hewlett established a little electronics company in a Palo Alto garage. That garage would later be dubbed "the Birthplace of Silicon Valley."-Stanford Univesity.So yup, your claim is pretty meaningless...nothing to back it up with?

Noble1xCarter commented on 17 Jan 2015

+Douglas Martinez Even if I stopped dreaming, the reality would go on. Nothing changing in this scenario.

Douglas Martinez commented on 17 Jan 2015

keep dreaming!

Noble1xCarter commented on 16 Jan 2015

Of course, Silicon Valley wouldn't exist if it weren't for UPenn in Philadelphia creating the first electric-based computer.

I'm with reaper freedom on this one. I think this is a dry run just to see what people will put up with in the name of security. I also hope that people are so turned off by this that they ditch their plans to visit.

buttadee commented on 26 Sep 2015

+Catherine Zeidler Exactly!

Queenly 1 commented on 22 Sep 2015

I live and work in Philadelphia; take the regional rail train each day to work and am employed with the Judicial system here. The entire courthouse is closing down from tomorrow (Wednesday) and will reopen next Tuesday. There are so many "strange" things happening here that raise the eyebrows of people who haven't historically "been paying attention to anything". Folks are filling up their car gas tanks, going grocery/food and water shopping, hunkering down and even getting out of here for these "free vacation days" off from work. There are just so, so, so many things that are questionable and looking at movies and the media (I know,.... I watch with a grain of salt too) seems to point to negativity for this event and time of year (spiritually and naturally). I heard it said before that what the "elites (or Jews)" do is, they inform you of what they're going to do to you in some kind of way prior to doing the actual thing they're going to do in order to free their conscience of guilt. By giving a "heads up/warning", if folks are paying attention and connect the dots, so-to-speak, they've been given time to prepare and remove themselves from the danger (the trap/snare) but if they don't take heed and get outta dodge, then they say, "OH WELL...WE TRIED TO TELL YOU WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN Goyim". Wow! This time next week we'll all be on the other side of all of these events and spectulations and we'll see how the conversation will be then. I am remaining in the city as I live somewhat of a distance from the inner city where all the pilgrims and people are now converging on the city (it's a beautiful sight, by the way, to see so many people from so many places coming together for a common cause - though I am not a fan of the Pope, Papacy, Catholic religion but it's just a picture of when Ha Maschiach (Christ) returns, that it'll be for every tribe, tongue, kindred, etc.). Anywho, my husband, son and I will remain here in Philly and as my son attends a private Christian school far from center city Philly, they will remain in operation. We will be tuned in to TV, radio and internet to stay abreast of stuff going on in the city but will be packed and ready to flee, if necessary! To the mountains we will go a flying! Everyone please be safe, prayerful and watchful. We're in the last days...but this is not the actual end... this is the beginning of sorrows and birth pangs. Shalom.

On Point Preparedness commented on 18 Sep 2015

+lifeandwellness Yup, I saw that! I believe it to be true. I did a video on preparedness bags being distributed in my city a couple of months ago. You can watch that here if you haven't already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVcrBLfkBpw

Scott Smith commented on 16 Sep 2015

So I live outside of Philadelphia and am very well connected with the communities around Philadelphia as I am a professional and involved with many groups. It is well known that the National Guard is going to be housed at West Chester University - some 1500 in number. There are 12 sites around the city that are preparing for "emergency centers" that will also house SWAT, secret service and other federal forces. I have been told that there are multiple scenarios that are actively being discussed and therefore planned regarding the Pope's visit. All of these individuals are "Sheepeles" and unaware of some possible biblical or financial or physical calamities that are quite possible, yet all of them seemed nervous about the extent of federal presence taking over not just the city of Philadelphia but the suburbs as well. FYI

DivineMissMelMel commented on 23 Sep 2015

+Scott Smith My work gave us off on Friday.

Scott Smith commented on 21 Sep 2015

I'm taking off Friday and going to avoid the city at all costs! Sorry to hear you have to work this weekend.

DivineMissMelMel commented on 21 Sep 2015

+On Point Preparedness I am not sure what is coming, or what is being presented if at all. I find it odd that every direction of people whether religious, theorists, astronomy, truthers, etc all point to something is coming. I know speaking for myself and family that we are pretty ticked about all of this. I myself feel that I should not have to go through security checkpoints let alone secret service checkpoints just to go to work. In fact, it is a major violation of my rights to work freely. The city is completely transformed.

On Point Preparedness commented on 21 Sep 2015

+DivineMissMelMelIncredible. I really think he is the false prophet and we will soon see the eye of Osiris (antichrist) be revealed during this time. That, or it will be a ceremony to welcome him and he will be unveiled soon after this time.

DivineMissMelMel commented on 21 Sep 2015

+Scott Smith and One Point Preparedness, I work in center city and have inside sources that all of the construction that market street underwent was facial recognition technology as well as all steps to below the city for the EL, and trolley also have new signs that you can most definitely tell it is technology to take pictures or surveillance. Every pothole lid has been securely shut so you cannot open them. The amount of walking cops, homeland security cars/SUVs has almost tripled and the homeless are being pushed aside and made to throw out all of their belongings when what they carry with them is all they have. So basically once the pope leaves, we will now have this over zealous security in place. Every corner has 100s of porta potties, the fence has been put in place and so is the secret service check points. the red square you see past the 4 mile red line for the fencing is where the "Hub" of secret service will be aka the DEA office buildings are being shut down from Wednesday until Tuesday.. My daughter will be off from school starting Wednesday. They took away every solar trashcan and recycling, and replaced with regular mesh type trashcans. The highways all around Philly are being shutdown at 10pm I believe starting Thursday night. Flags are erected with Pope pictures and quotes, but have a label of a corporation who has sponsored the flag. Stores have signs, bobble heads, plush dolls, tee shirts, I've even seen teeshirts of the Pope wearing an Eagles Jersey. It is almost like the Pope is being turned into Mickey Mouse or a super hero.

Scott Smith commented on 16 Sep 2015

I will keep you informed if I hear anything else.

On Point Preparedness commented on 16 Sep 2015

+Scott Smith Thanks for the information, very thorough. Confirms several suspicions.

Scott Smith commented on 16 Sep 2015

+Scott Smith Just want to make clear that the line where it says "multiple scenarios are actively being discussed", I meant to say these scenarios are all being planned for but not necessarily will occur. Please forgive the lack of information.
