Yea, I did, but I still don't understand your previous post, man. Are you saying that you think the unemployment rate in New York and Chicago are higher than Cleveland's? I really doubt that.
But on a broader level, the fact that New York and Chicago make the list say more about how retarded the criteria are than about how "miserable" New York and Chicago are. Millions upon millions of people flock to those cities because they're great, great cities. I mean, it ranks Chicago as more miserable than Gary. Huh? If your aim is to somehow quantify "miserableness," and the criteria you select lead you to rank Chicago and New York #10 and #16 respectively, you might want to reconsider your criteria. Especially when Detroit didn't come out on top.
EDIT: Ah, I think I see the confusion, Thump. You thought I was implying that Chicago and New York should be ranked ahead of Cleveland. In fact, I was only pointing out that it was ridiculous for either city to be in the top 20 at all.
