redbird: a New York subway train, the cars sometimes called "redbirds" (subway cars)

I just sent a letter to the editor to Newsday (it's the paper I read), pointing out Bloomberg's hypocrisy in saying that he's in favor of same-sex marriage, but is appealing against the ruling requiring the city to allow it.

The snarky part is that I didn't just point out that allowing same-sex marriages isn't only a matter of justice: in the short term, it's also a nice boost to tourism. I ended by asking, if he thinks the city can't handle that many visitors, how does he think we can handle the Olympics?

I have no idea if they'll print it: I've had a few letters printed there before, but I expect they'll get a lot of mail on this one.
