Slow buses, crowded vans and stressful commutes are part of life for the many who live, work and study in areas not served by the city’s subway system.Good service is the reason the subways exist.
The system must expand again.

Opinion
STEM Education
A computer scientist writes that the administration’s push to elevate scientific research has provided a boost to those involved in STEM education.Teaching technological literacy is far different than preparation for a life in research.
The technologically literate are the lab minions and the managers of turn key manufacturing.
They are not the original thinkers, the system designers, the backroom people who make the business successes possible.
We need the original thinkers who can get a new correct answer.

Fighting for Democracy
“Barack Obama may be no revolutionary, but he understands that the revolution of 1776 is the one we must save right now,” a reader says.http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/31/opinion/sunday/thanks-obama.html
The revolution of 1776 did not form a government.
The constitution of 1789 as modified by the supreme court and amendment must be defended.

Tattered Brooklyn Mansion Has a Blueprint for Rebirth
A team of architects will restore a ruined 19th-century building in Brooklyn Heights, building a replica around the underlying structure.These buildings were assembled from catalogs.
The documents exist.
The work starts in large libraries. The New York Public and the library of congress at a guess. Columbia has an extensive collection as does The Cooper Union.
Have they looked in the New York Historical Society collection?
The trim looks to be marble. It can be traced to the quarry and the cutter.
