Stewart/Rail, NIM no cars, Conor Oberst, Brooklyn Biotech & Americans as non-consumers

Busy working on new rail transit study option to Stewart Airport in New York's Hudson Valley near the city of Newburgh. Read about the new AECOM as our company makes the transition from Earth Tech to AECOM (or don't b/c its booooooring).

Just got a copy of the Conor Oberst album from my buddy on his visit to NYC from San Diego,CA., first in a while under his real name and not Bright Eyes, and have found a few of the songs to be pretty enjoyable. Haven't really been much of a Bright Eyes fan but I liked Cassadaga. The times just gave this review of his latest show at Terminal 5 with supporting act Ben Kweller.

Brooklyn's latest Biotech boom??? read about it here.

And are American's wisening up and consuming less? Well some think it could have a catastrophic effect. How do we consume less and keep the economy going?
