More witty observations from Brother Art, who doesn't 
even live in the USA.

Allegiance based on geography is what Kurt Vonnegut 
calls a "granfalloon."

Art, it might interest you that I live in a suburb of 
Boston, MA, which is where Polaroid's factories are.  

Yes, that same Polaroid which, just a few weeks ago, 
announced layoffs of 25% of their workforce.

Last I checked, it was a long way from here to 
North Carolina.
