The majority of judges ruled that while elephants are intelligent and deserving of compassion, they do not have the same rights as humans, specifically regarding habeas corpus. - Justification: The court argued that habeas corpus is a legal tool intended to protect human liberty and freedom from illegal detention, and it does not apply to non-human animals. - Consequences: This ruling means that Happy remains at the Bronx Zoo, and the legal battle for animals' rights has been dealt a blow in New York. - Ongoing Efforts: Despite the court ruling, animal rights advocates continue to push for better treatment of animals in captivity and are exploring other avenues for change, such as local legislation. ----- Ms. Miedvietsky, xNY.io - Bank.org feels the water quality in New York City, the elephant statue at BNP Paribas in New York City and "*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told*" may all have something in common. *The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told:* Art Director/Designer/Photographer: Bert Steinhauser Copywriter: Frada Sklar Wallach Client: El Al Isreal Airlines *"Thousands of years ago, in the Sea of* *Galilee, there was a tasty little fish known * *as chromis simonis.

Client: Rockefeller for President *The Last Vietnam. * We talk of Vietnam as we once talked of Korea. "Let us drag ourselves from this quagmire, and we will live happily ever after..." I am afraid that the next President will not escape so easily. *I say learn from Vietnam or be dammed to repeat it. * Our Vietnam policy was meant for the 1940's, for Western Europe, for the defense of democracies. Yet we apply it in the 1960's, in Southeast Asia, in defense of people who do not know what democracy means. And in wrapping this policy around Vietnam, we blinded ourselves to the real Vietnam. We assumed the enemy meant to seize land. We were wrong. He meant to disrupt government. We sent troops in overwhelming number. We were wrong. We shattered a small country's sense of responsibility. We were preoccupied with the changing premieres and presidents in Siagon. We were wrong. It was in the village and countryside where government failed. Now, peace give us a time to right those errors. To stop turning this war into an *American* war. To move Saigon toward reform. To build a strong and trusted village government. To secure the people from terrorism. And in Paris, to work patiently and persistently for peace. At home we must have candor and trust. Americans must believe in government again, and government must believe in Americans. The day must pass where press officers say, "The people I work for don't want to hear bad news." I say, face the truth. Trust the people with the truth. I say, do not fight change. *Guide* change. I say we can make this Vietnam the last Vietnam. And this is one reason why I run for President. *NELSON A. ROCKEFELLER* On Sat, Apr 12, 2025, 1:34 PM Gunnar Larson <g@xny.io> wrote:

If you have a product you are not happy with, what do you do? Sit and sulk? Moan to your next-door neighbor? Promise yourself that you'll never buy another product from the manufacturer? A lot of good that will do. No, Mr. and Mrs. Consumer, that's not the answer. If you have a gripe, let the manufacturer know. Call him up. Write to him. Keep after him until he does something about it. Because nothing bothers a reputable manufacturer more than dissatisfied customers.
We at Whirlpool believe in putting our money where our mouth is. We believe we make the best appliances you can buy. Automatic washers, dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners, dishwashers, etc. And we also believe our Tech-Care Service specialists provide the best service in our field. In addition, we were the first to do away with the complicated standard warranty and replace it with a fully binding, easy-to-understand warranty letter. We were first to provide a free, nation wide telephone number (800-253-1301) for service information. And we were the first to have consultants answer your calls, thereby solving many of your problems right over the phone.
But still and all, we know that you can't please all of the people all of the time. That's the reason for the blank letter on the facing page.

Dear Ms. Miedvietsky:
Great meeting you yesterday at Bloomberg's New York Headquarters. It was nice to briefly discuss New York City's water quality with you.
*Are you familiar with this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue office in New York City?:*
- https://images.app.goo.gl/5S9Vr
New York City has a story about "Happy the Elephant" that could end-up relating to this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas in New York City.
*Bronx Zoo’s Happy the Elephant Hasn’t Been Seen in Two Weeks, Observers Say:* *The zoo says “nothing is wrong with” the half-century-old pachyderm.*
The New York Court of Appeals ruled against a lawsuit that sought to grant an elephant, Happy, at the Bronx Zoo, the right to bodily liberty and freedom from unfair confinement, citing that the writ of habeas corpus <https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-charter-us-revc&cs=1&sca_esv=0312fbabf4daa587&q=habeas+corpus&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjv_I7HzdCMAxXwKFkFHdmHMfsQxccNegQIBBAC&mstk=AUtExfAG-umfVf4lCWGJ8yozv2qy5EL4M4DTBVJXBHIAGRpoQ7wbzBhcRhak10Ut-jpBW9jH40FvqBT_bclxuraKu30KKlobNDna3wk2ZSyTk5_Adr2UEBAmyc6uxsxuW0kriuhJKXHtG6IlDQc8rEDXu04GOjl8vQ68sYcFtMcl_CtxeldhcCNE_N6GCT-gVuDnSW5S&csui=3> is intended for human beings, not animals. While acknowledging Happy's cognitive complexity and self-awareness, the court found she didn't possess the fundamental human right to be free from unlawful detention. Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- The Case: The Nonhuman Rights Project (NRP) filed a lawsuit in 2018, arguing that Happy the elephant, at the Bronx Zoo, should be granted a writ of habeas corpus, meaning she should be freed from what they argued was unlawful confinement. They claimed she was entitled to the same rights as humans and deserved to be transferred to a sanctuary. - Court Ruling: The New York Court of Appeals, the state's highest court, dismissed the NRP's petition. The majority of judges ruled that while elephants are intelligent and deserving of compassion, they do not have the same rights as humans, specifically regarding habeas corpus. - Justification: The court argued that habeas corpus is a legal tool intended to protect human liberty and freedom from illegal detention, and it does not apply to non-human animals. - Consequences: This ruling means that Happy remains at the Bronx Zoo, and the legal battle for animals' rights has been dealt a blow in New York. - Ongoing Efforts: Despite the court ruling, animal rights advocates continue to push for better treatment of animals in captivity and are exploring other avenues for change, such as local legislation.

Ms. Miedvietsky, xNY.io - Bank.org feels the water quality in New York City, the elephant statue at BNP Paribas in New York City and "*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told*" may all have something in common.
*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told:*
Art Director/Designer/Photographer: Bert Steinhauser Copywriter: Frada Sklar Wallach Client: El Al Isreal Airlines
*"Thousands of years ago, in the Sea of* *Galilee, there was a tasty little fish known * *as chromis simonis. The 'Big Fisherman' * *himself is said to have caught it. So it was * *named St. Peter's fish, after him. *
*The name stuck to the fish and the fish * *stuck to the Galilee. The wonder is that it* *hasn't changed since Peter's day. Restau-* *rants all over Israel serve it and in Tiberias * *it's a specialty. *
*If you like, you can hook your own 'St. * *Peter' in the Sea of Galilee. Or fish for other * *fish in other waters. The seas runneth over * *with prizes. In Eilat, there's even a famous * *restaurant that will cook your catch right * *on the spot.*
*While the fish is grilling, you can be bak-* *ing on a nearby beach. Telling your own fish story. Or just watching the snorkelers watching the fish. *
*If you're a meat and potatoes man, or* *lady, you won't go hungry. How about * *barbecued lamb with hummus (ground chickpeas) or home-cooked chicken soup* *with noodles or boiled beef with curry or* *very good goulash? *
*And don't worry about getting fat. Places * *like ancient Sodom, King Solomon's Mines,* *Massada, The Tomb of Absalom, Mt.* *Tabor and Capernaum are scattered from * *one end of Israel to the other. You'll need* *some extra food to keep up your strength. *
*To get you off to a good start, El Al will land* *you at Tel Aviv with a few hearty meals* *under your belt. Including a* *breakfast of bagels and cream* *cheese and lox.*
*Then we'll add a warm* *Shalom. There'll be nothing* *fishy about that. *
*EL* *AL*
*The airline of the people of Isreal*."
Ms. Miedvietsky, I look forward to hearing what you think of the elephant statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue New York City office place.
Thank you,

A lot of good that will do. No, Mr. and Mrs. Consumer, that's not the answer. If you have a gripe, let the manufacturer know. Call him up. Write to him. Keep after him until he does something about it. Because nothing bothers a reputable manufacturer more than dissatisfied customers.
We at Whirlpool believe in putting our money where our mouth is. We believe we make the best appliances you can buy. Automatic washers, dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners, dishwashers, etc. And we also believe our Tech-Care Service specialists provide the best service in our field. In addition, we were the first to do away with the complicated standard warranty and replace it with a fully binding, easy-to-understand warranty letter. We were first to provide a free, nation wide telephone number (800-253-1301) for service information. And we were the first to have consultants answer your calls, thereby solving many of your problems right over the phone.
But still and all, we know that you can't please all of the people all of the time. That's the reason for the blank letter on the facing page. If you have a gripe about us, we want to know so we can do something about it. Just write your complaint, tear out the page and mail it to us. If you know anything at all about Whirlpool, you know it won't be ignored.
By the way, if you have something nice to say about us, we'd like to hear that too.

Dear Ms. Miedvietsky:
Great meeting you yesterday at Bloomberg's New York Headquarters. It was nice to briefly discuss New York City's water quality with you.
*Are you familiar with this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue office in New York City?:*
- https://images.app.goo.gl/5S9Vr
New York City has a story about "Happy the Elephant" that could end-up relating to this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas in New York City.
*Bronx Zoo’s Happy the Elephant Hasn’t Been Seen in Two Weeks, Observers Say:* *The zoo says “nothing is wrong with” the half-century-old pachyderm.*
The New York Court of Appeals ruled against a lawsuit that sought to grant an elephant, Happy, at the Bronx Zoo, the right to bodily liberty and freedom from unfair confinement, citing that the writ of habeas corpus <https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-charter-us-revc&cs=1&sca_esv=0312fbabf4daa587&q=habeas+corpus&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjv_I7HzdCMAxXwKFkFHdmHMfsQxccNegQIBBAC&mstk=AUtExfAG-umfVf4lCWGJ8yozv2qy5EL4M4DTBVJXBHIAGRpoQ7wbzBhcRhak10Ut-jpBW9jH40FvqBT_bclxuraKu30KKlobNDna3wk2ZSyTk5_Adr2UEBAmyc6uxsxuW0kriuhJKXHtG6IlDQc8rEDXu04GOjl8vQ68sYcFtMcl_CtxeldhcCNE_N6GCT-gVuDnSW5S&csui=3> is intended for human beings, not animals. While acknowledging Happy's cognitive complexity and self-awareness, the court found she didn't possess the fundamental human right to be free from unlawful detention. Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- The Case: The Nonhuman Rights Project (NRP) filed a lawsuit in 2018, arguing that Happy the elephant, at the Bronx Zoo, should be granted a writ of habeas corpus, meaning she should be freed from what they argued was unlawful confinement. They claimed she was entitled to the same rights as humans and deserved to be transferred to a sanctuary. - Court Ruling: The New York Court of Appeals, the state's highest court, dismissed the NRP's petition. The majority of judges ruled that while elephants are intelligent and deserving of compassion, they do not have the same rights as humans, specifically regarding habeas corpus. - Justification: The court argued that habeas corpus is a legal tool intended to protect human liberty and freedom from illegal detention, and it does not apply to non-human animals. - Consequences: This ruling means that Happy remains at the Bronx Zoo, and the legal battle for animals' rights has been dealt a blow in New York. - Ongoing Efforts: Despite the court ruling, animal rights advocates continue to push for better treatment of animals in captivity and are exploring other avenues for change, such as local legislation.

Ms. Miedvietsky, xNY.io - Bank.org feels the water quality in New York City, the elephant statue at BNP Paribas in New York City and "*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told*" may all have something in common.
*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told:*
Art Director/Designer/Photographer: Bert Steinhauser Copywriter: Frada Sklar Wallach Client: El Al Isreal Airlines
*"Thousands of years ago, in the Sea of* *Galilee, there was a tasty little fish known * *as chromis simonis. The 'Big Fisherman' * *himself is said to have caught it. So it was * *named St. Peter's fish, after him. *
*The name stuck to the fish and the fish * *stuck to the Galilee. The wonder is that it* *hasn't changed since Peter's day. Restau-* *rants all over Israel serve it and in Tiberias * *it's a specialty. *
*If you like, you can hook your own 'St. * *Peter' in the Sea of Galilee. Or fish for other * *fish in other waters. The seas runneth over * *with prizes. In Eilat, there's even a famous * *restaurant that will cook your catch right * *on the spot.*
*While the fish is grilling, you can be bak-* *ing on a nearby beach. Telling your own fish story. Or just watching the snorkelers watching the fish. *
*If you're a meat and potatoes man, or* *lady, you won't go hungry. How about * *barbecued lamb with hummus (ground chickpeas) or home-cooked chicken soup* *with noodles or boiled beef with curry or* *very good goulash? *
*And don't worry about getting fat. Places * *like ancient Sodom, King Solomon's Mines,* *Massada, The Tomb of Absalom, Mt.* *Tabor and Capernaum are scattered from * *one end of Israel to the other. You'll need* *some extra food to keep up your strength. *
*To get you off to a good start, El Al will land* *you at Tel Aviv with a few hearty meals* *under your belt. Including a* *breakfast of bagels and cream* *cheese and lox.*
*Then we'll add a warm* *Shalom. There'll be nothing* *fishy about that. *
*EL* *AL*
*The airline of the people of Isreal*."
Ms. Miedvietsky, I look forward to hearing what you think of the elephant statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue New York City office place.
Thank you,

*The Last Vietnam. *
We talk of Vietnam as we once talked of Korea.
"Let us drag ourselves from this quagmire, and we will live happily ever after..."
I am afraid that the next President will not escape so easily.
*I say learn from Vietnam or be dammed to repeat it. *
Our Vietnam policy was meant for the 1940's, for Western Europe, for the defense of democracies.
Yet we apply it in the 1960's, in Southeast Asia, in defense of people who do not know what democracy means.
And in wrapping this policy around Vietnam, we blinded ourselves to the real Vietnam. We assumed the enemy meant to seize land. We were wrong. He meant to disrupt government.
We sent troops in overwhelming number. We were wrong.
We shattered a small country's sense of responsibility.
We were preoccupied with the changing premieres and presidents in Siagon. We were wrong. It was in the village and countryside where government failed.
Now, peace give us a time to right those errors.
To stop turning this war into an *American* war. To move Saigon toward reform. To build a strong and trusted village government. To secure the people from terrorism.
And in Paris, to work patiently and persistently for peace.
At home we must have candor and trust. Americans must believe in government again, and government must believe in Americans. The day must pass where press officers say, "The people I work for don't want to hear bad news."
I say, face the truth. Trust the people with the truth. I say, do not fight change. *Guide* change.
I say we can make this Vietnam the last Vietnam.
And this is one reason why I run for President.

*HERE'S YOUR CHANCE TO FIGHT CITY HALL*
If you have a product you are not happy with, what do you do? Sit and sulk? Moan to your next-door neighbor? Promise yourself that you'll never buy another product from the manufacturer? A lot of good that will do. No, Mr. and Mrs. Consumer, that's not the answer. If you have a gripe, let the manufacturer know. Call him up. Write to him. Keep after him until he does something about it. Because nothing bothers a reputable manufacturer more than dissatisfied customers.
We at Whirlpool believe in putting our money where our mouth is. We believe we make the best appliances you can buy. Automatic washers, dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners, dishwashers, etc. And we also believe our Tech-Care Service specialists provide the best service in our field. In addition, we were the first to do away with the complicated standard warranty and replace it with a fully binding, easy-to-understand warranty letter. We were first to provide a free, nation wide telephone number (800-253-1301) for service information. And we were the first to have consultants answer your calls, thereby solving many of your problems right over the phone.
But still and all, we know that you can't please all of the people all of the time. That's the reason for the blank letter on the facing page. If you have a gripe about us, we want to know so we can do something about it. Just write your complaint, tear out the page and mail it to us. If you know anything at all about Whirlpool, you know it won't be ignored.
By the way, if you have something nice to say about us, we'd like to hear that too.

Dear Ms. Miedvietsky:
Great meeting you yesterday at Bloomberg's New York Headquarters. It was nice to briefly discuss New York City's water quality with you.
*Are you familiar with this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue office in New York City?:*

New York City has a story about "Happy the Elephant" that could end-up relating to this "young elephant" statue outside BNP Paribas in New York City.
*Bronx Zoo’s Happy the Elephant Hasn’t Been Seen in Two Weeks, Observers Say:* *The zoo says “nothing is wrong with” the half-century-old pachyderm.*
The New York Court of Appeals ruled against a lawsuit that sought to grant an elephant, Happy, at the Bronx Zoo, the right to bodily liberty and freedom from unfair confinement, citing that the writ of habeas corpus <https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-charter-us-revc&cs=1&sca_esv=0312fbabf4daa587&q=habeas+corpus&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjv_I7HzdCMAxXwKFkFHdmHMfsQxccNegQIBBAC&mstk=AUtExfAG-umfVf4lCWGJ8yozv2qy5EL4M4DTBVJXBHIAGRpoQ7wbzBhcRhak10Ut-jpBW9jH40FvqBT_bclxuraKu30KKlobNDna3wk2ZSyTk5_Adr2UEBAmyc6uxsxuW0kriuhJKXHtG6IlDQc8rEDXu04GOjl8vQ68sYcFtMcl_CtxeldhcCNE_N6GCT-gVuDnSW5S&csui=3> is intended for human beings, not animals. While acknowledging Happy's cognitive complexity and self-awareness, the court found she didn't possess the fundamental human right to be free from unlawful detention. Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- The Case: The Nonhuman Rights Project (NRP) filed a lawsuit in 2018, arguing that Happy the elephant, at the Bronx Zoo, should be granted a writ of habeas corpus, meaning she should be freed from what they argued was unlawful confinement. They claimed she was entitled to the same rights as humans and deserved to be transferred to a sanctuary. - Court Ruling: The New York Court of Appeals, the state's highest court, dismissed the NRP's petition. The majority of judges ruled that while elephants are intelligent and deserving of compassion, they do not have the same rights as humans, specifically regarding habeas corpus.
- Justification: The court argued that habeas corpus is a legal tool intended to protect human liberty and freedom from illegal detention, and it does not apply to non-human animals. - Consequences: This ruling means that Happy remains at the Bronx Zoo, and the legal battle for animals' rights has been dealt a blow in New York.
- Ongoing Efforts: Despite the court ruling, animal rights advocates continue to push for better treatment of animals in captivity and are exploring other avenues for change, such as local legislation.

Ms. Miedvietsky, xNY.io - Bank.org feels the water quality in New York City, the elephant statue at BNP Paribas in New York City and "*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told*" may all have something in common.
*The Greatest Fish Story Ever Told:*
Art Director/Designer/Photographer: Bert Steinhauser Copywriter: Frada Sklar Wallach Client: El Al Isreal Airlines
*"Thousands of years ago, in the Sea of* *Galilee, there was a tasty little fish known * *as chromis simonis. The 'Big Fisherman' * *himself is said to have caught it. So it was * *named St. Peter's fish, after him. *
*The name stuck to the fish and the fish * *stuck to the Galilee. The wonder is that it* *hasn't changed since Peter's day. Restau-* *rants all over Israel serve it and in Tiberias * *it's a specialty. *
*If you like, you can hook your own 'St. * *Peter' in the Sea of Galilee. Or fish for other * *fish in other waters. The seas runneth over * *with prizes. In Eilat, there's even a famous * *restaurant that will cook your catch right * *on the spot.*
*While the fish is grilling, you can be bak-* *ing on a nearby beach. Telling your own fish story. Or just watching the snorkelers watching the fish. *
*If you're a meat and potatoes man, or* *lady, you won't go hungry. How about * *barbecued lamb with hummus (ground chickpeas) or home-cooked chicken soup* *with noodles or boiled beef with curry or* *very good goulash? *
*And don't worry about getting fat. Places * *like ancient Sodom, King Solomon's Mines,* *Massada, The Tomb of Absalom, Mt.* *Tabor and Capernaum are scattered from * *one end of Israel to the other. You'll need* *some extra food to keep up your strength. *
*To get you off to a good start, El Al will land* *you at Tel Aviv with a few hearty meals* *under your belt. Including a* *breakfast of bagels and cream* *cheese and lox.*
*Then we'll add a warm* *Shalom. There'll be nothing* *fishy about that. *
*EL* *AL*
*The airline of the people of Isreal*."
Ms. Miedvietsky, I look forward to hearing what you think of the elephant statue outside BNP Paribas' 787 Seventh Avenue New York City office place.
Thank you,
