Update… With the concern for the NYC economy post 9/11 and the well known stance of Republicans like Giuliani and what they feel are frivolous litigations, does anyone have any questions at all as to why no one wanted to look for or find any kind of explosives or accelerants that may have...

I might be willing to help organize various aspects of a costume party, in New York City, for October. I don't know anything about the possible venues in the city, though, so someone else, with more expertise in the field, might have to pick the location. We'll have a costume contest, with a...

On a whim, because it was such a beautiful day outside, I took my bicycle out of storage and rode down the Hudson River parkway to Ground Zero. Which is a little bit more than a block of where I live. I've been there numerous times over the years but hadn't been down there for a long while so...

Ok... after putting all the available data into our massive computers (I looked at the calendar on the e-clock), and taking into account various variables (April 21 is booked for certain people and April 7 is no good for me), the state of the art program (the Turing machine called jmercer) has...

Okay, getting picky here. But can any native New Yorkers give me an idea of how wide Barclay Street is near the WT7 site? Thanks guys

CNN is reporting that there are complaints of a strong gas-like odor being reported throughout Manhattan and possibly across the river in New Jersey. A large office building in mid-town Manhattan has been evacuated. No links on it quite yet. More to come...

Are there any New York skeptics out there? I've spent most of my life looking for skeptics and atheists and critical thinkers among the people with whom I spent my free time. Recently, I realized that it might be easier for me to just track down the local skeptics and atheists and critical...

I was in NYC on Saturday and after tooling through Forbidden Planet I went into the subway station at Union Square. There were break dancers kickin' it and everyone was enjoying them. After watching them for a bit I headed to my train and found the Co$ people in their usual spot with their "Free...

There are not enough people in New York City to find whatever I want, whenever I want it. Due to the internet and cell phones, efficiency is no longer the barrier, it's the raw number of people. I think to reach my ideal, new york needs about 20 times more people than it currently has. I guess...

Happened across this on YouTube. I'm not sure where I fall on the UFO truth/fiction scale, but... Anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZb2VlDyYvk

The Darwin exhibit now at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City is being extended through August due to "overwhelming public response". In its first three months the exhibit has attracted 200,000 visitors. At TAM4 one of the speakers mentioned that this exhibit had no major...

Sorry, just have to howl somewhere. He is appearing at local concert hall and when I called them on it, their reply is that his "people" have rented it for private use. For three days in December 15th, 16th and 17th. All I can think is "great" just before Christmas he will do great business and...

In an "Ask Dr. Hecht column" the good doctor rips apart homeopathy. (ahem, disregard his recommendation of chiropractic as a possible option in the first question asked!) http://www.nydailynews.com/city_life/health/story/283616p-243017c.html Q: I received by mail a free sample of a natural...

Not just a description with engineering details, though it's that. The political stuff is here too. Dig for it. Enjoy. http://www.nycroads.com/

Well, no, it wasn't the Hells Angels... Yes, I'm sure this will make a lot of the undecideds sit up and take notice. "What? They blocked ambulances? They spray-painted a golf course? That's it - I'm voting for Kerry."
