<Agree Minnesota is a great place. One of the last places in America where we are all neighbors.>

Yep, and you're all above average. Us Cheeseheads must be the ones averaging things out.

Joan:

I spent some time with a few small industrialists in the Minneapolis area. All had experienced order cut backs. All were starting lay-offs.

In general, retail in the Minneapolis area appeared in better shape than in many other areas.

Best, Earlie
