OT: Looking at the “In Memoriam” section...

The church where you were baptized was a short walk from where I lived in the Lower East Side section of NYC. The next place my parents moved to was on 1st Avenue near 12th Street was even closer.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov

Personally, I have no memories of living in New York, having spent only the first few weeks of my life there.

We did drive through fairly often during my early childhood. I remember there were still horse drawn wagons in use there, and a lot of electric flatbed trucks. I saw all the great ocean liners of the day, as we passed under their bows. I always wanted to see a battleship. As a small child, I thought it would be really huge. Once there was one at one of the docks, but to my surprise, it was so low I could not see the hull, only the superstructure.
