Maybe I'm guilty of using Civic rather than Idealist yardsticks?
Get the book How Fargo of You, I think you would love it, Tony. It's written by a guy who moved to here from Scotsdale, Arizona who writes with astonishment how nice, crime-free, helpful, friendly, etc. people here are. Lots of funny anecdotes.
His opening chapter is about him before moving here coming here to visit a friend and he is shocked when he stops by one of the biggest gas stations in town (the PetroServe USA on 45th St.) and learns that you pump before you pay!
