well. stop longing for seattle. If you are so attached. Take the chip off you shoulder and call it quits.

About Abudhabi. I like it twice as much as qatar. It's got the early 90's qatar touch when it comes to local culture. The locals are twice as mature as qatari counterparts when it comes to socio-cultural interaction. Traffic doesnt choke in early mornings. The city was built with scalability in mind.

abudhabi has invested in so much more than just glass,iron and bricks. They are the true modern arabs.

About Aisha-Taweela....Not everyone can afford a maid. I know Whinging about dishwasher outlets is lame(engr2002). Then again... Look at the bright side. The Whinger gets to keep the QL point. The haul is not very dissapointing seeing how vociferous the whinger is.
