Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

Major League Baseball Really Made A Bad Decision
I am sorry to say that Major League Baseball really dropped the ball by forbidding the Mets to wear baseball caps honoring the first responders on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. They were allowed to do this at the end of the 2001 season, so why not on a milestone anniversary of the biggest national tragedy of our lifetime? Would wearing those caps give the Mets a competitive advantage over the Cubs? Perhaps the Cubs would have worn the caps as well. Would MLB have fined the Mets? If so they should have donated the money to a fund for medical care to the first responders who are suffering years after the tragedy.
