[Magdalen] news from home

[Charles Wohlers]

Or folks who move out to their idyllic house in the country and then 
complain about the pigs next door.

I did note one sentence in the article: "The lights slated for conversion 
are all along the coast." Like, they have foghorns in North Conway? Maybe 
they need them in Concord to wake up the state legislators.

When I was quite small, we lived in Richmond, CA. I remember the foghorns
there. I liked them.

Those "new" people need to be told to go fry ice (thank you, Molly!). They
are just like the people who build way out in the woods and then complain
about the deer. My late ex had a word for them, but it wasn't polite so I
won't.
