Having become increasingly perturbed by signs that AWADtalk is being used for its intended purpose, I offer this as an antidote to such regrettable rectitude http://www.miami.com/herald/special/features/barry/2001/docs/may20.htm

http://www.miami.com/herald/special/features/barry/2001/docs/may20.htmThis is cute, Max. Though Dave Barry has crossed my path only a few times, I have enjoyed every one of them. Geoff may be interested to find out that his newspaper has been in production since 59 B.C.

Oh, Max ... for this ex-newshound it was a flash from the past! On a semi-related note : there *are stories that repeat. Among the annual stories we had in the '70s and 80s were:
"Police station sinking" -(built on the edge of a salt water marsh, it still is!)
"Beach parking in crisis" (yep! you guessed it!)
"Beach Precinct voters clash on budget increase" (ditto)
"Selectmen consider Senior Center" (still!)
