I was thinking the same thing many posters have enumerated - OSC hasn't actually lived in a small town recently has he?

Being from Winston-Salem, just west of G'boro, I can say emphatically say that it isn't a small town. Hasn't been in decades..

I think having a population of a quarter million disqualifies it for 'small town' status, unless you guys have blown rural population scales way out of whack.

Well, when I posted that population estimate, I thought it was self evident that 237,000 people = city. That estimate apparently doesn't include the surrounding suburban sprawl, because in 2006 Guilford county had a population of 451,905 according to its official website (which also calls Greensboro a city). Bucolic small town America it ain't
