JK> You must have come into NYC,

   Yes, that's one of my favourite cities (my absolute no 1 is San
Francisco, but that's probably because it's the most Europe-like city in
the US). I actually walked around the Twin Towers just a month prior to the
9-11 disaster, and we (my wife and I) had planned to go up to the top, but
we found the $13:50 just to go up there was a wee bit too much, so we
rather took the $9:50 on the ESB. Something I of course regret today...

   We both loved everything about NYC (except the hair raising hotel prices
-- $120 per night in a sleazy hotel on 48th street was more than we use to
pay in a five star hotel in Europe), especially the Delis, that we soon got
accustomed to. Plus of course all the people, that somehow made London,
Paris et al seem like petty small towns.

 JK>  not that I'm prejudiced about that area of the country, you
understand 

   Of course not! I know perfectly well the difference between NYC and NY,
the state. :)
