This totally slipped under our radar here but here are the good folks at the Gothamist with the basics. Living testimony to the efficiency line in local (some might say NIMBY-istic) activism, here are some wikipedia details on the South BK paragon. Check the curiously tamed down brouhaha

The internet is a great tool, except for one little flaw. It is saturated with humans and their own personal, unsubstantiated opinions. There once was a time when that opinion might never go any further than the fool’s, who thought it, front porch. It might just be one of those family secrets that everyone knows about and are conscience enough to never mention that topic when that crazy uncle is around.

So why is it, that despite all the dangerous places and situations that I have found myself in, that the only people that I truly fear the most, on this planet, are the ones that are supposed to protect me? I fear the [...]
This little gem came our way from our friends at the Bay Ridge Public Library. Apparently our little backyard will play host to a magic show from magician Phil Levy. After a little homework, we came to find out that Mr. Levy is quite the muckity-muck of the Magician [...]
