7. I have no idea what's behind this...
although it's been covered locally. It's the dumbest idea I've heard in years.

Besides the logistics of getting people on and off the ship and over to the Garden, which are considerable, having everyone in one spot in the middle of the harbor is just plain dumb. The security they'll set up to stop some nutcase from sinking the ship will tie up the entire harbor, the Hudson River, and miles of NYC and New Jersey coastline.

Bloomberg's spot on in hating the idea. It's not just taking a few million out of the NYC economy, it's just plain stupid.
