Talks like this are for global contacts. We all know, real future is between two and two eyes. Where the money is to change the money world. No money no changes. The way without money is the same. Changes without money also possible. To contact between is for me to write for my own painting or merchandising, as small as it is.

New York will make itself obsolete by over taking and exceeding the level of inflation rate of the rest of America. New York's skyline is tall but still 2 dimensional. Its capacity to support industry is limited by it ability to clear its' arteries. New York will always be as strong as its' weakest character.
