What u said has a point cause they want to increase the poulation due to greying population.Originally posted by ShutterBug:It is true... have you all noted how much more crowded coastal areas like East Coast is on weekends??

I agree ....Originally posted by sg mata:people are responsible for their own temper.....we should not blame external factors ( eg:weather/overcrowded ) for the way we behave.....of course such factors do play a significant part, but ultimately....whether we lose our temper or not is a choice thata person can make.....
