| | I think John 23 Marchi has kept this secret for many, many 24 years, and certainly, I believe, that the.31 1 word is getting out that Staten Island is a 2 beautiful place. | | | I can say that on a personal level 17 I do not think that it would be 18 objectionable if something had to be 19 connected to Staten Island. | | | 17 On the other hand, it would be an 18 insult to Staten Island to be rearranged and 19 sent back to Manhattan. |
