At least priorityman got off his keester and did something about a
situation
that bugged him....instead of merely sitting around whining about how no
one
listens to him, the way most people do. It's his town, and a fairly
notable
one from an architectural/historical point of view, so I'm guessing the
issue of context is more im****tant there than in your average American
strip. I just hope he knows what he's doing...
