I did a few months for them, but I thought they were in Bloomington.  Wait, 
maybe that's State Farm?  I get them confused.

I didn't care so much for the work I did for them, but the town suited me right 
to the ground.  Just the right size, and only a few miles in any direction was 
cornfield and big sky.  A church I liked, some favorite restaurants, a 
chocolatiers just a block from my motel, a grocery store up the way, a movie 
theater on the edge of town, some of the best pizza I'd ever tasted over the 
line in Normal.

That company was a ~huge~ installation: I don't remember how many thousand disc 
packs and how many hundred LPARs, but it was a lot.

it's been.
