Something that comes to mind: I'm not sure what the geographical dispersal of
list members here is, but it has often crossed my mind that given the spread of
nationalities I've seen so far, what we have access to is a powerful resource
for global UA gaming. If my group goes to the Wahrheitstempel, I'd far rather
get another UA gamer's spin on Berlin than grab tourist info off the Net;
simultaneously, I think I could provide better info on Johannesburg (I see the
TOSG is supposed to have a foothold up there <grin>) from an occult horror POV
than, say, Fodors or Let's Go!

This being said, I'd be happy to supervise and host the results of a "city swop"
on my personal site; what I am envisaging is a few paragraphs per city,
interesting UA-appropriate themes and locations (like the LA diner mentioned by
Ryan), and a few URLs for more "touristy"/conventional info. Personally, I'd
like to see info on Berlin, Atlantic City, and Paris; I'm sure everyone has
three or four cities they'd like to use.

Any takers?
