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.” <BR><BR>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. <BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>Thanks for thinking of us.<BR>Best
Regards,<BR>Bob<BR></SPAN></FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
