I'm listening to part 2 the podcast of Mike Dunn's interview of John Street. Street trots out his math skills again to make sure we know that anything less than 1 (the number of actual city officials who were convicted in the corruption probe), is zero... assuming we're talking about whole numbers. Take a listen. Street thinks that future Philadelphians will be quite happy with his administration:
Finally, John Street believes he'll be remembered instead for revitalizing neighborhoods: demolishing vacant buildings and towing abandoned cars. And he believes Philadelphians will look back fondly on his two terms as mayor:
"History is going to treat us very good. History is going to be very, very fair and favorable to us."
The interview including podcasts for parts one and two can be found here.

I hope "Shame of a City" becomes a cult classic.

I'll take that wager with John Street in a heartbeat.
