	benihana OK, so I'm trying to figure out why the lines that run from the wall to the dispenser are missing. I've read on some other galleries that all of the copper piping had been ripped out...I'm assuming to be sold at scrap yards. Is this the same reason maybe that the lines are gone?

	benihana Off topic...I'm really curious about that list paper on the floor. I find 2-week-old lists in the back seat of my car and even those interest me...I wish I could see this one...

	benihana Do the shopping carts belong to former homeless residents of the building maybe? (Were there hobos living there ever?)

	benihana is that a fire hose hanging off the top landing?

	benihana I like the floor. The fallen ceiling tiles are being absorbed by the floor, or so it seems.

	benihana Why would just that one board break? I picture someone standing on it, or jumping off of it. If it was just from sitting, the middles would've all broke.
