Your message brought tears, Bob. If we want to send a donation for Sandy  
relief, where do you think it would do the most good.
 
Grateful you're safe,
Jann McGuire

It has  been quite a journey over the past week.  Lynn , Nelson, and I are 
fine –  enduring our relatively minor hardships compared to many others. 
When I am  asked where I live I reply, “on the Hudson River”. At the beginning 
of the  week I would have had to reply, “in the Hudson river.” 

The city and  our office has been shut down. Many of  my staff including my 
partner,  have had to endure prolonged power outages, home damage,  and 
isolation ,  that still persist at this point. Fortunately none of us has 
suffered any  injuries. Everywhere I go I am struck by the randomness of who and 
what is  sparred vs destroyed. 

The finest human bonding moments for me have  been standing in the line 
with my gas can and visiting with my fellow  survivors, endurers, and 
mutualists.

We have seen many examples of  intelligence, respect, and practical concern 
 and action on the part of  individuals and government officials from both 
parties in response to the  crisis.

Sandy has taught us to appreciate so much that we take for  granted  and on 
the other hand our capacity as human beings to make do  and help one 
another.

Thanks for thinking of us.
Best  Regards,
Bob
