@IVY. I agree with what you are saying. I just feel that the administration in Philly lacks any direct ties with the old=school ways of LCN. It has for some time

The NY families are just the same but there are still quite a few guys that believe in mob traditions and "codes of conduct".

I don't think that any of the "young turks" guys have a respect or appreciation for the LCN. How could they?? Most of them were brought in as outsiders or are 2nd generation to a guy who didn't truly understand it when he was involved. Of course, there are exceptions.

It would be like putting a forum member in the LCN. Sure, you can read all the stories about it, but without experiencing within the intended context, you really don't know.
