 I couldn't resist looking this up, the bridge was put up in the fifties, I
didn't see anything about rivets, but that has to be how it was assembled.

1.  Drove to Ossining today from Joisey, via the Tappan Zee   Bridge.  Which
was assembled with rivets, not bolts; as I remember, this was early 70's.
perhaps the last gasp of riveting came later than I thought.

2.  Why were the Rosenbergs executed in Sing Sing, a NY State prison, for
what were presumably federal crimes?

3.  Was thinking earlier about killing two birds with one stone.
    Might a dishonest Levantine jeweler bill two Kurds for one stone?  Who
would still two birds for one Kohn?  The one I was really trying to get to
work involved two turds and Bastogne, but I gave up.
