think this is important on several levels, which I will not
elaborate on at 4:21 a.m. Eric....are you close to this place?

Used to be for most of the '90s, but not now. NYU sprawls all over
town but the epicenter is roughly at 4th Street south of Fifth
Avenue and Washington Square Park. (The 9/11 hijackers flew low
right over WS Park and NYU on their way to the WTC, probably a plan
to defeat any missiles fired at them. People in the park were
startled as the huge jet roared overhead a few hundred feet off the
ground.)
I'm a few blocks from the Met Museum on the eastern side of Central
Park, near the so-called "Museum Mile." One trick for museums here:
if you see a sign that says "suggested donation," you can pay any
amount and have a right to enter. The Met Museum has a "suggested
donation" of $10, but I usually pay $1 or less. I'm poor, a regular,
and the Met is the wealthiest museum in the country, I have no
problems with a "from each according to their ability" strategy.
Budding tour guide,
Eric
