Wow. Excellent. I didn't know that was going on until you posted it. Thank you.

Dead link for me.

Bummer! Maybe just go to www.nytimes.com and look for the article "What N.Y.C. Sounds Like Every Night at 7"
I guess you've got to toggle the mute button, too, after clicking the right arrow to get past the first screen.

it wants my email address but that's fine because I have one for just such circumstances. But then the log in section of the screen won't scroll down and then I can't get past it. I'll just assume it's poignant and move on......

it wants my email address ...

Oh dang, I didn't realize that. Supposedly NYTimes articles re Covid19 are all free (normally they give you 10 a month for free). At 7:00 pm every night people in NY open their windows and lean out and clap and cheer for all the medical workers - all over the city. It's really something. The link went to several phone videos catching this.

Weird, it opened up fine for me.

NYT will give each IP address several free articles a month. It may be that Tom had exhausted the free ones whereas you had not. Local cookie policies and ad blocking also seem to effect when things are shown for free or not. WaPo, for example has a lot of COVID-19 content that is supposedly free but since their site (incorrectly) thinks I am running an ad blocker, they insist on an email address anyway.

Worked fine here - took a while to notice the MUTE-button on top-right of SECOND screen - funny place for that - got me fooled.

Cities worldwide are much different to what they were just few weeks ago.
