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.

Visited the 9/11 Memorial Today
I visited the 9/11 Memorial to pay my respects to the approximately 3,000 people who died in that tragedy. I am standing in front of the pool where the South Tower Stood. Much progress has been made in the almost 11 years since that tragic day, but more work is being done. As of today there are two pools where the towers stood with the names of the victims of the 9/11/2001 and February 1993 attacks inscribed in bronze around the two pools. The arrangement of the names is bases on "meaningful adjacencies" that reflect where the victims were when they perished. There is a museum that is still under construction that is scheduled to open before the end of 2012.
