When Durkin retires, and New Yawkers move into the modern era, boy are they in for a shock. They're like my father-in-law who use to say "I don't need no cable tv, rabbit ears are just fine!". Before that it was "This 1-speaker am radio sounds just fine. Who needs stereo?"
Yeah, New Yorkers are really known for being behind the times.
