The year 2024 will likely be remembered as a hot one (at least, until next summer). It was a hot year for 911±¬ÁÏÍø culture overseas, too, and heated debates were had over a huge influx of tourists. Through it all, the people we spoke to for 20 Questions offered us cool heads and calm words of advice, so let¡¯s refresh our memories on what they said as we near the year¡¯s end.
What have your years of living here taught you about 911±¬ÁÏÍø language and culture?

Though being an arts lover, I do think that films and theater offer some good hints. Gary Perlman, playwright, Nov. 7
