VANISHING

I got the following email today from JVNY reader and writer David Kamp:

"HELP! Just walked past my beloved local greasy spoon (6th Ave at 12th St) and they have big handwritten signs in the window saying they've lost their lease after 35 yrs. They are asking people to sign a petition to save Joe Jrs and to 'spread the word,' I guess in hopes of pressuring the landlord not to cut them loose."

*Update: Kamp rounds up the blog coverage and Grub St. says "it's really over."
