Re: <nettime> Tourists and Terrorists: Guiliani 2000

[Alan Sondheim <sondheim@panix.com>]

The industry here isn't working - only 1% of Newyorkers say they'll be at
Times Square, which if true is only about 100,000; a lot of the hotels
have vacancy, the city's running scared.

Re: another post - I wouldn't put too much into the brilliance of terror-
ists over any other group - it's often like anything else a form of bung-
ling. There was a cell a few blocks from me here in Brooklyn - few years
ago, they were gonna blow up the B-train, and they were caught because
they took in a roomate who didn't get with the bombs in the kitchen.
