| | 11/01/2012 |  I'm writing this late Wednesday from a friend's house on the upper west side. Downtown, where I live we have no power and no water. I live on the sixteenth floor of a building and if you want anything you have to walk down and up sixteen flights in darkness. Fortunately we have flashlights.
At the office we have been very lucky. No power until maybe Thursday but the subway system isn't working yet either.Otherwise no water damage. So in theory, if UPS starts picking up again, and if we have power we should be back in business any day. I won't be back in the office until Monday I think. Who knows. I consider ourselves pretty lucky, there are lots of poeple who lost houses and lives, we have been merely inconvinienced.
You can place an order anytime - the website is working exactly the way it should, but please be patient about shipping and customer service questions.
thanks,
joel
ps - Ben snapped this picture on Tuesday when he went to check on office and see if we were ok.

Also, I've been thinking about what the woodworking community can do with all these downed trees. Making furniture for people who lost everything? Know of any organizations already thinking along those lines?
Yours,
