    Other small businesses seem to manage to keep tabs on the communities they seek to serve . . . "crushing letters?" Hardly.

    Except I am content without them "making it right". If that ever changes, I am content to take care of it on my own.

    To me, the only way a blade is too deep is if the edge is protruding out the other side of the scales, but what do I know?
