Thanks for topping Faina! Now I'm worried--I have a mole, first discovered in NY, that the dermatologist wants to biopsy.

I remember Superman helping the little guys, so it's got to be true.

Oh, CaliNurse, aren't we alike? My mole TRAVELED from Belarus through New York as the port of entry to San Francisco, and the biopsy was negative, thank God!

Does this give me the right to join the army of the Mole People

I never order chicken with mole sauce at any Mexican restaurants in NYC for obvious reasons.

I'm really disappointed: I've been to NYC and knew nothing of this. Didn't Mickey Mantle trip over some kind of hatch on the turf at Yankee stadium thus prejudicing his career? Was this a secret entrance to the tunnels? I'll have to look harder next time I'm there.

A useful documentary may be "The Tick vs. the Mole Men."

You won't find this one on the Sundance Channel. It should be coming on Toon Disney next Thursday.

This is nonsense and so is this thread. Ann, don't come to NYC. Someone who asks insulting questions about New York doesn't deserve the greatness that New York offers visitors.

How can we 'stand traveling in the subways'??? Oh yes, the people are in throngs massing around the underground subways with their underground schools, in underground villages.... This has to be the top most ignorant question I've ever seen on Fodors.

who revived a silly 6 yr old thread?! I know that there are no mole people in the bowels of NYC--the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would not stand for it.

This is an ugly subject, but in the interest of public safety it must be addressed. I hope people are very careful when traveling the subways with their families. I bet there a lot of child mole-lesters who live there and just your garden variety mole-lesters. Be careful, people.

clara may be a bit eccentric, but her mole thread inspired me to top this little gem~

I just saw this post for the first time - probably the most non-informed, inane post of all time. There are millions of people who ride the subway day in and day out -- 99.9999% in perfect safety. Mole people? Yeah - I heard about some in Grand Central Station - and some other spots - they don't bother anyone and you'd never know they were there - which is the way they like it. I think they are not there anymore, anyway.

I think that everyone concerned about these mole people in NYC should definitely stay home - since if they come here they'll end up buying the Brooklyn Bridge, or losing a pack playing 3 card monte on the street, or donate money to the (drunken) college student (ha!) who was mugged and can't get home without a donation of cash.

People like this shouldn't be running around lose.
