That Fire Commissioner NIcholas Scoppetta. The picture is from during the blackout. They are all sweaty. *Note: Ever since working on Gothamist, I now know the names of a lot of city and agency officials. I think that's cool, because I don't know that I'd have that level of interest in city politics otherwise.

who's the ghoul over the Mayor's right shoulder? He sucking on a sour patch product?

Me too... I actually like Bloomberg, even in spite of the taxes and some other things... I think he is motivated to make the city better, versus seeing it as a stepping stone in some political career.

It's kind of nice to have a mayor who doesn't spend every waking moment trying to cover his ass.
