Hello Everybody!
We get lots of questions we can't answer ourselves. So we have
decided to post some of the questions we get from our visitors on this
page. If you can help answer some of these questions, please E-mail us
a response, and we will contact the person asking the question, and
send them your response. At this point we don't want to post E-mail
addresses, to protect our visitors from Spam E-mail sights. We'll try
this out, and see how it works. We can even post the responses on this
site for everyone's benefit. To make it easy for us, please copy the
original question, or reference the Q# in your E-mail response. Thanks
for your help!

- Q003: Hello, Can you please point me in the
direction for finding out info on Lake Success, NY? The stuff I found
on the internet isn't what I'm looking for. My brother has been offered
a job there, but they are on a limited income. Can you suggest what
neighboring cities to consider? Thanks so much and I look forward to
your response. Susan Greene.

- Q004: Dear Sirs, We are a group of artists from
Liverpool / England, and are looking for artists in New York to
exchange with. (ideas and exhibitions) - particularly artists who also
work for a museum or art gallery, as we do (The Tate in our case!) I
wasn't quite sure which area to go to for help - so was just hoping you
could point us in the right direction!.
It would be a particularly favourable idea at the moment, as
New York will be twinning with Liverpool next year, and it would be
nice to stage an event to commemorate it! Yours sincerely, Wendy
Williams.

- Q010: Hi I have been trying very hard to locate a
specific Hotel there in New York, I had a friend tell me about it once
and I had looked it up on the internet, but that was quite a while back
and I have no way to locate that friend. I do not know the name of this
hotel but I was hoping that if I described it to some one from New York
they would know what I am talking about. It is an old hotel built on a
private lake on the top of a mountain, it very much reminded me of an
old castle and I remember that there were extensive gardens and trails
if memory serves the gardens were award winning. If this sounds
familiar to you I would appreciate any clue you could give me. Thank
you very much, I would like to find this place as my fiancée
loves New York and I would like to take her there for our honeymoon. I
live in California and have never been there so I really have no clue!
Thanks. Jeffery Galpin.

Q014: Hi. I think you have a
good website, but I didn't find exactly what I was looking for. My

so if there was any way we could get information about local events

things, that would be useful.
