QUOTE OF THE MONTH
“What makes the New York suburbs work is a kind of osmosis". . . "On that Tuesday, the process was interrupted; the tunnels and bridges were closed down-the capillaries that shuttle suburbanites back and forth. . . . Like everyone else in America, we realized, we were living in someplace new. Its exact boundaries were still unclear, but wherever it was, it had no suburbs." -- Charles McGrath, "The End of the Suburbs," NYT magazine, September 23, 2001, p. 73-75.
