The position will be appointed by Gov. Patterson. He's the only one she 
needs to impress. I haven't made up my mind yet about Patterson...he just 
announced that NY will be taxing everything but the air people breathe. It's 
necessary if the state doesn't want to end up bankrupt. It's good for the 
economy of neighboring states, where New Yorkers already go to shop. I don't 
understand why NY's budget is 5 or 6 times bigger than Pennsylvania's (which 
Gov. Rendell still claims he can balance with no new taxes), when their 
population isn't that much bigger. I love upstate NY, but those taxes are 
why I live in PA.
