Oh we understand Ruth, I would imagine we each have places like this. In 
our little town, we had a magnificent 3 story wooden hotel, gingerbread 
trim, big porch, you name it. Burned up on Thanksgiving morning a few 
years ago, and as far as I know, no one ever had a clue or even cared 
about who did it or why. I sigh everytime I pass the still-vacant site.

And at least the NYT is SOLD in Putney - I have to drive at leat 20 
miles to get one.  :-)

In sympathy,
