Great Regulars: This week's Poetry Pairing matches Robert Frost's

classic poem "Fire and Ice" with an Opinion piece by James Atlas that, in addition to quoting Frost's poem (and T.S. Eliot as well), states that "whether in 50 or 100 or 200 years, there's a good chance that New York City will sink beneath the sea." The piece is called "Is This the End?"
