According to Mayor Adams

1. You'd think all that smoke would be a problem.

6. You'd think they wouldn't run diesel trains underground in the subway but they do...

The system is actually pretty well ventilated.

5. The Mayor's own mouth.

“No more smoking. No more doing drugs. No more sleeping. No more doing barbecues on the subway system. No more just doing whatever you want".

4. Actually no, not while riding the subway, but some of those living in the tunnels do cook food

where they live.

8. Dine in or carry out? Take phone orders? Pork, mutton or rat?

I'll have a pulled pork sandwich on whole wheat with mild sauce and side of potato salad, please?....

One of the few memories I still carry from my only business trip to NYC in the early 70s for an AES convention was the frightening smell of burning wood and trash in the subway tunnels.

The only other distinct memory is that of one of our associates with a group from Utah trying to make a deal with a prostitute in a bar. This was one hell of a shock to a country boy from Tennessee just out of college and who still had feelings of guilt for even going in a bar.

Also, the cranky smart-ass attitudes of waiters in restaurants.
