I agree we should wait for the next report before storming offices of local politicians. – FSP commenter Shirley Vandersomething My Reply: “To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death.” […]
