OT - Hey, donuts are a sore subject around Austin right now. One company in Round Rock (Lone Star Bakery) made some that were widely acknowledged as the best in the region - until their building was gutted by fire a few weeks back. The entire Austin area seems to have gone into wistful withdrawal over this loss. Other mundane donuts just don't seem to measure up.

I expect a study soon which correlates lost productivity to the lack of Round Rock Donuts <tm> at morning coffee breaks. It's amazing how a critical parts shortage will impact a business. <g>
