Thanks to all for the welcome,
yes NYC is a different place for most but being a musician it suits me, I started some Buddhist studies some 10 yrs ago and just found a new interest in the Tao I have been struggling for over 3 yrs with Kidney problems (on dialysis) a friend has introduced me to Kunlun and I am very excited about it, I just started my level one and will keep you all posted on my progress
Regards
Kevin
