I realized that wrote two e-mails without answering the question clearly, kat. You didn't send me a virus did you? This letter was posted to the Cape Breton politics listserver last yesterday or this morning by Kevin, a union type guy.
My experiences in Flint are limited. I had to go to area several times in the late 80s when computer users in sales/engineering offices of a German/Japanese owned auto parts manufacturer in Auburn Heights. Auburn Heights was close to Flint but a world away. I drove by run down factories on the way the offices on the way to hotels where I stayed. The hotels were always name brand. The rooms and my stay as dull as you would expect from any franchise operation. Well, one time I was surprised to find different colour pubic hairs in the bathtub when I got to the room but people do slip up and I'm not afraid to rinse out a tub.
