My husband and I have found NY to be a much friendlier city than its reputation gave it decades ago. This change occurred after 9/11.

I saw this on Fox News yesterday. Took some guts, that's for sure. I feel sorry for the daughters, though. Can you imagine the sheer horror they would have gone through?
