That's why it's always important to take whatever idea you may have and try to realize it. No matter how crazy or retarded you may think it is, it's still worth trying. Not always, but often people will recognize good intentions and reward that with their patronage. If there is something missing from the "scene" that you want then try to make it happen on your own (or hopefully with the help of friends). As bad as NYC seems to have become, at least according to many people round these parts (you're not alone Mimi), it almost makes it ripe for a revolution however small or large that may be.
