flint, michigan was the city featured in michael moore's first movie, roger and me. it looked grim then . . .
chiamattt: At least it has a Burger King.

Michigan is trying to join the modern age, but unfortunately if new technology and knowledge isn't applicable to automotive design we just don't seem to get it. :-/
Blade: That place will be closed in a month!!!

I love Flint,From the Mansions to the abandon houses.to the corupt cops to the Drug dealers.I was born in the 70's.I still can remember a time when it really was a nice place.It was dead long before GM left...How about Regan-nomics and Crack.
