  1. i dig the link for vaccination info. i’m an on-campus college student and for some reason students are acting as if the H1N1 vaccine poses more risk than benefit to them/everyone. that said, i will confess that i have too much work to get to the flu clinic without missing classes, but i know i need to get it.

  2. While New York City is indeed awesome, that list is of inventions made in New York STATE. Of the various items on the list, only toilet paper, chop suey and Christmas are purported to come from the city.

  3. I will be correcting that shortly! Thanks, Jack.
