We asked 50 New Yorkers to write on their Sept. 10, and were amazed at their tenderness and wit. We were gratified to have Tom Wolfe write on the city that changed. Mayor-elect Michael Bloomberg sketches his plans for the future of New York City.
We live in a four-dimensional city, where time and space make their own rules. This has never been clearer than this year, when so many lives were stolen from us but left a transcending legacy. As E.B. White wrote in Here Is New York, "this riddle in steel and stone is at once the perfect target and the perfect demonstration of non-violence, of racial brotherhood."
At the end of this year, in this aching holiday season, we are full of gratitude for the souls we loved; their exuberant faith makes New York a place where memory is the bedrock, ambition the air, intuition and courage the reasons to stay, forever.

more armchair psychologizing from the "liberal" media about the character of a certain family in a certain "liberal" county in california. lets see did we miss anything. we made snide comments about hiphop, alternative schooling, the beatles. is there anyway to blame organic farming? maybe they would like us to carpet bomb the area and start again with only morally upstanding families. i know of some conservative jews who always seem to be anxious to repopulate "cleansed" areas. and those bushes are an upstanding lot. they could build a giant castle and lord over everbody in the county. then the entire community (and ultimately the world) could bask in the glow emanating from their beknighted character.
