"Vendors unfold their wares of Chinese rabbit-fur hats, sunglasses, cheap leather gloves or scarves. Name a problem, they sell solutions. The vendors seem connected, by instant wire, to fate. If the oceans rise and New York is flooded one day, they'll produce at that moment rubber rafts and life jackets. Fishing line and hooks, to sell residents as they flee."
