What an Incredible Time! I think I was there before you..But, I loved my time in "The Village'" although it is much changed from when I lived there on both West 10th and 12th Street....I think. And, I worked in Publishing Industry...when it existed. Loved It!

But, Washington Square Park gives me fond memories. So glad that Bernie is "Keeping on Trucking"...even though the logistics are difficult for a huge rally there..I am So....Glad to see Bernie Appear There!

...And, it's Really Exciting! I'm so glad to know you were THERE...whenever it was in your life history!

in the early-mid 80's. Alphabet city was a scary area, but cross through there and I could walk through Little Itlay, Chinatown, the Bowery all the way to the Seaport. I miss it so much. But my visits to NYC since 9/11 have completely turned me off to the city due to the hyper militarization.

I am in the South but I am trying to arrange a trip to coincide with the 4/14 rally. It would be a nice memory bookend to complement my days at Occupy in the beginning, as I see Bernie's campaign as the political expression of Occupy.

Difficult but not impossible. It depends how he is setting it up and if he is using Imag screens around different areas, etc.

Will be interesting to see how it works out.
