Subject: RE: Proud to be a New Yorker
Thanks, Joe. I choose to take "Hymietown" as a compliment. New York survives and thrives because of our ability to welcome all races and creeds. We have our share of racists, bigots, and apparently terrorists as well. These are more than compensated for by the millions of people nationwide and worldwide who came to our aid after September 11. All of the support that I know of came for survivors and victims without strings attached -if there was a donation that specified "Not for Jews", "Not for Blacks", or "Not for Arabs", I am not aware of it.
