Post Barry, DC has actually been doing a very good job or at least trying very hard. They do many things better than surrounding jurisdictions. The bad stuff gets the headlines.

Recently the new school super is getting good press both locally and nationally. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
