I might add, that I worked in Harlem, concidered a bad part of town and went to high school in Harlem. A trip to New York should include lunch at Sylvia's on 125th street, a vibrant culturally wonderful part of New York. As one of the few white faces on 125th, I can bet I got a better welcome than a black face would get in quiet a few New England towns. Don't bring a gun, bring a smile.
