Perhaps Mark Cherian should stop reading all those Commie propaganda about the West. Regarding his quip about NY city having no life after 8, one can only laugh at his child-like ignorance. As for his "only whites enjoy life after 8", again it just goes to show his total ignorance and biased pre-conceived notions not to mention his huge inferiority complex. One can only pity such folks - their naievity and infantile mentality. Get real, man, grow up!
