FWIW, I tried to incorporate as much of the research I did on
the cities of Berlin and Bejing in their HUSH HUSH write-ups.
Indeed, many of the artifacts in the Wahrheitstempel are based
on information gleaned from my primary source, as is the
neighborhood its in, and I tried to give a little background on
the hutongs and courtyard palaces of Bejing.

Of course, actual residents or visitors to those regions could
give a better feel, which is why I'm interested in the
www.unknownarmies.com city write-up concept. I'm willing to put
in my oar on DC, Pittsburgh, and some concepts from my recent
visit to San Antonio.
