An excellent idea. What is the advertiser on the most StPaul billboards? Publicize it, and let us boycott the biz. As they drop off, find the next highest, and boycott them. It means a constant stream of updates, pointing the finger, naming names, until they run for cover.
Meanwhile, we can work on getting rid of them, banning them as I read Falson Heights has done. This will require sweeping out of city councils all the puppets of the Chambers of Commerce. Unregulated capitalism has no morality whatsoever. It is up to citizens to supply, and enforce, a much higher standard. Eternal vigilance is the price of beautiful vistas. --David Shove Roseville On Wed, 25 Aug 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > <<Wouldn't $150,000 be a small expense if that building could be turned into jobs > and other uses, long term?>> > > The word is not expense; the word is extortion.
