Once you all get there, you will realize how awesome this place is.
There is nothing to be afraid. Just remember, carry around an unlimited
metrocard and a subway map. Taking cabs everything can get expensive. 

for those that are planning to spend the weekend in NYC, be sure to
check out http://www.bigapplebbq.org/ its huge every year.

Seriously, Dave was taken out of context by the usual suspects.  Brooklyn / NYC is pretty OK. 

Oh, ObOp! Thanks a ton, Telx!

      Dave as in David D has spent TOO much time in NY.
      
      I gave basic smart tips for any big city.  Just wear a Telx hat and
      you are safe. That is like the crips there in NY. Lots of respect from
      the gangs. Otherwise no one can make bets with their bookie, fo'get
      'about it....
      
      
      Enjoy your travels everyone! Come early, stay long, network with all!
      
      David
      The Host of Nanog43 in The City!
