But from one of the pictures there is something to smile about, and that is the lengths that health and safety regulations will go to.

I refer of course to this picture where a 'CAUTION WET FLOOR' notice has been placed.

I hope I did not offend anyone - I keep forgetting this is a globe site and would hate to hurt the feelings if anyone had lost a loved one
Furthermore I's glad to see New York and surronding areas seem to be getting back on their feet.

At least Obama has been seen about, where was George W when it happened.

NY will because of the nature of the city. It's the financial centre, and the hub of the US. Many outlying areas will take a very long to come back from the devastation.
