We have all heard the warnings to 'Stand clear of the closing doors'
on the subways... now we know why! One conductor decided to take

Mike, thanks for the Times piece on the death certificates database.
It does look like the city will be cleaning up that mess for a while.

Speaking of articles... and messes to be cleaned, the Daily News has a
section on Best Beaches in the LifeLine section tomorrow. Orchard is
listed as "Best Beach We All Know About."

the water, Manhattan three, Brooklyn has two and one on Staten Island.

Regards,
Marc
