all those express trains hurtling through every few minutes, anyway when the trains are in service. I have to admit, Mr. Fanelli, I think the 79th street station's in pretty bad shape & sometimes at night as I toss in my bed I think the world's not doing too good either, & I wonder what's going to happen, where we're headed, if we're headed anywhere, if we even have heads. Mr. Fanelli, do you think if we could just start with the 79th street station & do what we could with that then maybe we could, you know, I guess, move on from there? Mr. Fanelli, when I saw your picture & the sign asking for suggestions I thought, if you really wanted to get to the bottom of what's wrong then maybe it was my job to write you: Maybe you've never been inside the 79th street station because you're so busy managing the nnd street & 66th street stations, maybe you don't know the problems we have at 79th-I mean the D EAR MR.

Do you go to the movies or do you prefer sports-or maybe quiet evenings at a local restaurant? Do you read much, Mr. Fanelli? I don/t mean just Gibbons <strong>and</strong> like
