BIG TERROR
There's Big Steel, Big Tobacco, and Big Music.
From the web (Seattle Times, 9-14-2001?):
Everything reminds us of what happened on Tuesday when Big Terror took on the Big Apple--and almost won.

LINDY'S CHEESECAKE & FROZEN BANANA
I didn't have much of a chance to go through Clementine Paddleford's columns.
From THIS WEEK magazine, NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE, 3 October 1948, pg, 46, col. 3:
_Lindy's Cheesecake_
2 1/2 pounds cream cheese
1 3/4 cups sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange rind
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
Pinch of vanilla bean pulp of 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy cream
Combine cream cheese, sugar, flour, grated orange and lemon rind, and vanilla. Add eggs and egg yolks, one at a time, stirring lightly after each addition. Stir in cream.
From THIS WEEK, NYHT, 17 October 1948, pg. 47, col. 3:
_Frozen bananas_ that's the latest concoction skewered to a stick and chocolate-covered, then frozen and wax-paper-bagged to sell from deep freezers to groceries and drugstores. Distribution to date in Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul.

>From THIS WEEK, NYHT, 3 October 1948, pg. 26, col. 2: "There is an old joke, the tag line of which runs as follows: 'That horse ain't blind, he just don't give a darn.'"
WINDY CITY: There has been no response from Don Wycliff, the Public Editor of the Chicago Tribune. It's been a month. The Chicago Tribune twice (this year) said that New York Sun editor Charles Anderson Dana coined "Windy City." I have asked ADS members who can write perhaps less passionate letters to write to the Public Editor. Nothing gets corrected.
NEW YORK TIMES: I walked in the 1959 "personal computer" citation to the New York Times three weeks ago. The editor then went on vacation, but last Monday morning he e-mailed me that he was back. I didn't see any correction this Sunday (electronic version). It's bad enough that I make no money at all, but when people aren't kind to me and let errors stand, it's more than I can take.
