Any self-respecting Yankee ought to know it's "gummit" not "government"....
Geez.

Hey!  Was we talkin' to youse?

Do us highclass New Yawkuhs have ta listen ta dis hick, who woiks fer da
Feds, or some joikwater southren state, or some other branch a government
which is clearly inferior ta da New Yawk City Landmarks and/or Planning
Commissions?  Huh?

Our exteemed Sharpshooter specifically requested woids and/or poils of
wisdom
from "NYC-area Pinheads" on dis. He din't axsk ta hear from any a youse
provincials from way da hell beyond da bridges and tunnels, who just might
happen ta be right.

So, shaddup awreddy, will youse? We're tryinna have a intelligent
conversation here!
