certainly i did, and that's not all. i also went to the UN which i discovered to be a right laugh. basically, they give you a tour, and they expect you to behave (you have to tell them who is in the party in advance, so they can check you are not a journalist/spy/terrorist) but what happens is if you ask awkward questions they get really shifty, because even tour guides there effectively are UN spokespersons. marv. and i went a tour of the history of the skyscraper, and i went to a college in new jersey to visit, also good.
damn, i just noticed a typo in my title, i am slipping.

Countless Faces Commuting
Sometimes, the easiest way to get an accurate view into what the population is like in a certain area is to simply observe the people themselves. Yesterday, commuting home, I continuously snapped photos at every stop, both on the PATH...
