Postcard from NYC

As you shall see, this card from my archives dates from October 1981. I often hear echoes of what I was reading at the time in my writing. In this case, I was reading a lot of Taoist philosophy, for this is the source of the phrase "10,000 things". It's a phrase which is commonly repeated (at least in the translations I've seen), and I find it especially charming.

Oh, yeah, download time is estimated at 9 seconds.

In other postcard-related news, I've decided to forge a permanent link to an "index" page for these postcards. This link appears to your left, near the top of the screen.
