@sh damn. That sounds painful... and permanent.

@amyhoy Interesting that people perceived Vienna as safe just by looking at photos (with no geographic context). "Hot or not" for cities.

@amyhoy "Which city is safer?" Vienna gets top marks; Boston, not so much - http://pulse.media.mit.edu/results/
