TO JONATHAN :

<that the vast majority of victims (85 percent) do not report rape; that false rape accusations are extremely rare; that rape convictions are a 50-50 proposition at best and that only 2 percent of rapists who
are convicted go to prison.

These figures come via Wendy Murphy, who's represented dozens of sexual assault victims, and from statistics in the 1994 Violence Against Women Act. Clinton, by the way, supported that act and signed it and, no doubt, was heartened by it.>

Ah, Middleburg. Are you horsey? I would love to be on 89th, so close to the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim. When you say that you live "a clip north of the city", I take it you refer to a third residence. I had a good friend who used to live in Ossining, and I have friends in Croton- on- Hudson, a friend in Rye, and acquaintances spread around the area. Are you in Westchester?
By the way, I grew up on the Maryland side, when I wasn't in the city, and it is not unusual for Marylanders to mostly stay on their side of the river, and Virginians to do the same. I have lived most of my adult life in Annapolis, and am currently a couple of miles from the Chesapeake Bay, although my wife and I will probably move to Washington when our son finishes high school in a few years.
