Suffering From Fuzzy Math
Courier-Life
Brooklyn resident Robert Puca proves that you don't have to be a rocket scientist to do math, but you probably shouldn't be a reporter.
I would like to see a correction for the article written by Stephen Witt, “Independent Oversight of Atlantic Yds. Project.”
Mr. Witt writes, “The money committed... toward the project represents a little more than 10 percent of the $200 million the city and state gave to FCRC for infrastructure costs.”
My calculator places that percentage at 0.13%, to be exact.
Looking forward to your reply,
Robert Puca

NoLandGrab: That makes the Courier-Life figure off by... more than alot.
