Quote:
"After the Civil War, many farms switched from oxen to horses. Although
Amish and Mennonite communities continue to use horses, by World War II most
draft animals had been supplanted by machines that allowed for ever-faster
production on bigger fields.
"Animals are literally lighter on the land than machines. 'A tractor would
have left ruts a foot deep in this road,' Mr. Ciotola noted. * * * And as an
added benefit, animals leave behind free fertilizer.
My comment: Read paragraphs 2 to 4 only.

("There was no sign of the police or even a conductor, but officials at the
Metropolitan Transportation Authority, reached on Monday, were not amused. '
A dinner party on the L train?' said Charles F. Seaton, a spokesman for the
authority. 'No. Subway trains are for riding, not for holding parties.' In
deference to the authority’s rules, the hosts did not offer alcohol. This
did not assuage Mr. Seaton. 'No beverages at all with open containers,' he
said.")
My comment:
(a) L Train is a local train in New York.

(b) Summary: Several supper clubs sent emails to invite people to a six-
course luncheon that tooka half-hour, serving a luxurious menu (paragraph 5)
in an off-hour, bringing in tables, platters, utensils etc. The organizers
looked out for transit police to disrupt them, which did not come. "Because
of a few no-shows, there was room for walk-ups (or rather, passengers)."
paragraph 10. It is more or less like a pop-up restaurant or, more aptly,
flash mob. paragraph 1.

(French celebrity Chef Ludo Lefebvre in LA: "I always say to Krissy, my wife
, why I cannot just rent a restaurant for one year like we rent a house?
Because, you know, I was very scared to sign a lease for 10 years or 15
years. That's scary." So Lefebvre asked a friend with a bakery that closed
at night if he could turn it into a pop-up restaurant, one that would
suddenly appear for a few weeks in the evenings and then close down. He
christened his guerrilla-style eatery LudoBites)
