o.k., o.k...  Remember:  In the above I said "some smart
*marketing* person"...  Since when has marketing had to
worry too much about a strict definition of reality ??.....   ;-)

Yes, of course;  especially in this case:  I believe many of the
people who work on the Grand Forks had their houses flooded
and still came to work as soon as they had a place to come to..
One of the TV news hours or Frontline or etc. had a program on
how the Grand Forks Herald kept putting out the paper through
the flood here a few weeks ago....
