[Jay Hauben, NY Resident]:
「I wrote to my friends around the world and I said, this is a wonderful summer in NY, the weather is tune and the coolest June we』ve had on record and so therefore it must be hot, and tell me is it hot, and everybody wrote back and said, yes, sadly the weather is awful for most of the places, so I am glad we are getting our turn here.」
紐約市民傑．豪本說：「我寫信給世界各地的朋友，告訴他們紐約今年夏天好極了，天氣溫和，有我們遇過最涼爽的六月，（你們那裏）一定很熱，告訴我熱不熱，每個人回信都說熱，很遺憾大部份地方的天氣都很糟，所以我很高興我們能在這裏。」
