And why are interiors not designated in NYC? I was despondent after
visiting the lavishly carved oak boardrooms (not BED rooms - leave that
to Twybil & Gracie Mansion) of JD Rockefeller after witnessing where the
contemporary junk bond traders, recently vacated en masse, had drilled
holes through and through oak leaf & acorns willy nilly in order to
route their computer data cables. But then, it seemed an historically
accurate use of the space. I also got to think what hysterical relevance
THAT space had to my life & family and was not disinclined to consider a
radical departure to kindle and torch the remnant edifice.
