Sunday Stylin': This one is just ignorant

Apparently unfamiliar with the vacationing habits of the Nineteenth Century robber-barons and their European counterparts, the Sunday Styles section in today's New York Times pretends that there's something new in the social cachet associated with a person's summer vacationing locale.

This was clear to me when I was a second grader who heard vague accounts of the people with cottages on Gull Lake.

Next week's scoops: ladies like big diamonds on their engagement rings; men with mid-life crises behave erratically; and many people find puppies cute.

I wish there were more to bash about the article, but that's it.
