RBF DEFINITIONS
Abstractions:

"Only the old-time New Yorkers can know the great trans-
forming dynamics and, more importantly, the city's myriad
of rich abstract resources. Because pure abstractions such
as love, hate, happiness, and inspiration are as invisible
as they are nonmerchandisable, all the real meaning of New
York is both invisible and nonmarketed."
