1. I'm not in that picture, but my dentist's office is on the right side.
And I've been in that hotel a shitload of times.

Depending on the chair the dentist put me in, I'd either be staring at the Chrysler Building, down 42nd street, or into the building across the street.

10. I've seen official crowd estimates that varied from 100,000 to 1,000,000
I was there and it was difficult to count. I just remember seeing a helluva lot of people, but it was the most laid-back and friendly crowd I've ever been in.
