New York, almost uneducated

Pretty sure San Francisco folks are uncorking the champagne! They finally beat NY on something! According to A study of 100 cities conducted by University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, New York ranked a lowly #47 behind such tongue twisters such as Milwaukee (#42), Arlington (#46), and Birmingham (19). San Francisco, managed to come in at #5, but the top three spots were reserved for Minneapolis (#1), Seattle (#2) and Denver (#3). I think the literacy has something to do with the bad weather conditions in these cities - snow, rain, snow, and in case of San Francisco, no life. new Yorkers, however have fun thangs to do.
