Georgetown, DC: A Place where "people cannot live"

A colleague described his recent visit to what was once one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in Washington, DC. The people there, he said, walk their "foo-foo item" dogs while yelling into their cellphones. You can't see their faces for all their makeup, and none of their clothing is thrift, old, or home made. Those not on foot clog the street in land-yachts. This, he said, is an environment in which people cannot live.
