As of several holiday seasons ago, I became a computer priestess, joining the enormous flock of users. The delights were endless, and the simplicity divine. I knocked off my entire children’s list of gifts by activating an Amazon account and linking it to my Citibank. It’s better than shopping for sales, and the process is made simple. Could I be contributing to the demise of retail establishments in NYC?
