Well, I've gotten some response to my blog entry about the mysterious city in the "Lost" poster (see way below), which clearly means this poster has struck a national chord. Just what IS this city, and what IS that interesting dark letter, or circle that hovers over the building? Is the whole meaning of "Lost" in this poster? Is...
Anyway, we now respond to reader mail. Someone disputes my notion that this might be LA (though I still think it's Chicago.) He/she wonders: Have I ever even been to LA because there's no water line near downtown, which I obviously should have known about? Yes, Mr./Ms. LA! I have! In fact, I was born and raised in California. I'm a third-generation Angelino. Next question.
Someone also asks, could the poster city be Portland (below)?

Unlikely.
Or, how about Tallahassee?

I don't think so.
Someone also wondered, what about Singapore? Well...?

I'm starting to like this idea.
OK, let's get the LA question out of the way. My new penpal, "Bob" says, "it's definitely LA...you can make out the Bonaventure Hotel and the US Bank building's distinct outlines." That sounds reasonable to me...

...though I'm still not a hundred percent certain we're there yet. (How about Long Beach...anyone for Anaheim?...)

Vancouver is used in lots of movies, tv and ads.
Very modern set of skyscrapers near downtown on an inlet.
PS I usually post to Neil Best's blog, hence the moniker.
