I was asked the other day where this effort was going. It seems to be including people who were not really part of "the park". While I do not have any designs, it does appear that the park was that place in the lake where the stone landed and sent our ripples to many parts of Queens Village, Bellerose, Bayside, Floral Park and Long Island.
The park may be the magnet that drew people together and thankfully, we seem to have been a nice enough group, that people came together and stayed together. While there are still many 'park people' to talk with, it has been interesting to speak with people who connected with the park group but rarely set foot at Braddock. All are welcome. Despite the number of interviews we have, there is little to no overlap in stories. We each remember things that are uniquely important to us and that is different from everyone else.

Hey Mick ... as a contributor, I can verify that you will survive the interview. I did get a chance to listen back to parts of Chris Warne, Nuggie (Jim Walsh) and Susan O.'s sessions. I found them very insightful, in parts funny and in other parts making me aware of dynamics I was not aware of going on behind the scenes in our friends' lives. It will be great to hear from a few others in advance of our upcoming 50 year reunion!
