Yes, I can imagine. And that's going to be happening for quite a
while. I really dont' know if it's a trade-off, b one thing I can see
happening for more than a moment, it that it will obviously hurt the
rec. areas that are already experiencing hard times, However it will
increase business in other places that aren't used to it.

But speaking of a sign of the times....

Man, readers digest is joining the ranks in the tank

That is hard to believe but I know they were seriously mismanaged for
a number of years by the old time family owners. When I was a kid I'd
pore over every issue as soon as it arrived. In small town America
it was my only exposure to some of the big city publications like the
Wall Street Journal and a few others.
