Ok, since you tend to lean toward the insult side of things from time to time, I'll give you a free lesson on buying fish - if the eyes are cloudy, it's a little old. If the eyes are cut out, it's more than a little old. Which do you think you'll find on Canal Street? Trick question, you find them both!
You go keep buying that fish from Canal Street.
Kinda sucks when someone knows more than you, doesn't it. Not the first time you've challenged me.

surdo - the LES has changed a lot...i can understand the residents making the exact same complaints people used to make when i lived in hoboken (all these out of towners coming in, getting drunk and peeing all over the streets, etc. - which is funny, because it used to be the *cough* locals who'd be peeing on them before). also, many of the place which gave it its unique feel and vibe have had to move out because of the significant rent increases...(like that hotel on bowery - WTF???)
i used to primarily hang out in the west village because it was eclectic, still do a bit but now mainly enjoy soho / east village despite the changes (ie. cbgb's closes up, but cbgb's "store" opens on st. marks, nyu invades the clubs, etc.) and now that area has led the cocktail resurgence at places like blue owl, PDT, death & co., and the wine bars like bar veloce...
i still enjoy the city lots, but can sympathize with those who have lost patience with the changes. and there's still tons of stuff to do, architecture and history to see, with only a subway ride to separate you from it all. can't beat that...
