Park Slope Stroller Nazi Story Getting a Little Stale

We're not exactly sure why this was a front-page article the the NY Times Sunday Real Estate sectionseems more like City section material to usbut, there it was, another article making light of the number of strollers (and implicit bourgeois existence of their pushers) in Park Slope. The fact that there are a lot of young families (some of whose matriarchs aren't averse to a little public nursing) in Park Slope just ain't news anymore, so let's just settle the fight for the soul of the slope once and for all in the hopes that another article never has to be written on the subject. In the words of The Times article, is Park Slope "Hipster Hell" or "Parent Heaven"? Update: As of 4:30 today, there were 216 votes for Parent Heaven and 158 votes for Hipster Hell.
