The SWPL class
SWPL's are educated, urban, Bohemian, progressives.The social network centers around the upper tier universities and the "blue"/progressive urban centers. Common activities of this class include: listening to NPR, drinking locally roasted coffee, attending an upper tier college, voting for Obama, shopping at Whole Foods, drinking a micro brew, or engaging in some activity to raise awareness. The class is mostly white, but there is a substantial minority of Asian members, and a smaller minority of black and Hispanic members. SWPL's are 'white' in the sense of what a black person from the hood says when he accuses his buddy of 'acting white.'Great Problems: The Economic Classes and their Respective Plights

Your Say
Envision that group as a bunch of FNG's, sitting on a dusty street sucking up their beers, no grenade screen and old Ba tosses them the steel pill of reality.
Boston could use another bit on noise like that in select places but I wouldn't limit it to there; share the wealth.
