pop of Texas if it had density of NYC: 7,091,317,740
pop of the world 7.125 billion
So yes, it is not only cool, but also correct. Nice.
BTW, for those of us in the rest of the world, dumb question maybe, but when people say NYC, what exactly does that mean? Manhattan? 5 boroughs? Something else?

I treat it as 5 boroughs when talking to non locals. When I'm talking to someone local, we talk specific boroughs. To us, its all the same shit, no matter what borough you are in. We are always in traffic. Except for nights and very early mornings, even then, night construction might get you. There is always something going on somewhere. During the day, in the city, it can take me 40 min to get .1 mile. I sometimes wish I can put plywood on a motorcycle lol. Parking hurts the most around here.
And back on the shop topic, yea Tom, I wouldn't call you getting raped either. Considering all that was done, you got a decent price. If you would have come down to Brooklyn, you would get a better price, but its hard to find a spot that will take you right away. You usually end up waiting for hours around here.
