	Well, maybe I'm not seeing the Big Picture, but it sure seems like
here in New York, things are a lot less organized.  I've never met most of
the SA's at the sites we talk to.  On a couple of occasions, I've tried to
organize a get-together of the SA's in New York City, but the interest just
doesn't seem to be there.  To be sure, there are a few people who will bend
over backwards to give you a hand, but for the most part you're on your
own.  Oh well, that's life in The Big Apple.  On the other hand, the Mets
just beat Houston, so I guess things aren't too bad.
