greetings from new york city

I'm in NYC visiting my sister. Some say that New York City is the greenest city in America. For example, only 20% of the population here own cars...the rest use public transportation. This is a polar contrast to any other city in America. Much of NYC has curbside composting and residents risk being fined if a recyclable item is found in their trash. Extreme dense living lends itself to less resources used per person. Still, one month's rent in NYC costs more than buying 5 acres of land in Terlingua, TX. OUCH !

Trevor,

Wish I could have made it out there with Sam. Though I could't visit, I can not tell you how much admiration I have for what you are doing and building out there. I have really enjoyed your thoughtful blogs and commentary.

There is still time. It is not going anywhere.

Nice to hear from you, Jeff. Thanks for writing.
