Living on the lower East Side of NYC at that time, the stores in the Polish
and Ukrania communities down there had some interesting, low priced food
stocks on the shelves from the old countries after the melt down. Makes one
wonder if they glowed in the dark. The daughter left behind could well be
an orphan in the not too distant future--hopefully not. On the positive
side, it seems they have many good friends to help.
