1)	The guide is incomplete  Much of PLG remains the "far side" of the planet to us - we have lived in one spot in PLG for 4 years and we don't get out enough
2)	Yes, we do have a hell of a lot of nerve We have created a guide with a pretentious name and we don't really know everything about the neighborhood. Call it chutzpah.
3)	We do have a plan to fix the problem - you!  Resist emailing us to tell us how lame we are. Instead, help us and your neighbors by submitting great tips.
4)	We have a hidden agenda Our national media has gone completely insane and has totally abandoned any pretense to what could be seriously called journalism. It's gotten so unbelievably bad, that we actually think hack amateurs like us provide more value simply by placing a cheap mike in front of real people with real opinions about real issues.
5)	We are wimps The distinction between "improving a neighborhood's services" and "forcing out the working poor to create a middle class haven" is so contentious and charged, we will attempt to stay out of the fray by simply providing a forum for all manner of opinions on the subject. That said, could we just have one bagel store... please?
6)	Our president is a criminal and should be impeached  Hey, it's our nickel and we can say whatever we want. Don't like it? Get your own planet.
7)	Finally, our top six reasons for calling the site "PlanetPLG": 6) Suggests an all-encompassing guide (which of course is a lie) 5) All decent domains already taken 4) If sued by Planet Hollywood, we can easily change to "PlanItPLG" 3) We live in the same hood, but on different planets (this is bad) 2) We want to help foster interplanetary communication 1) We read too much Science Fiction as kids (okay, we still do) Questions, comments, tips, insults?
