Ah, yes. "Be patient." That's good advice, actually.
Thanks Winsor for mentioning the point about batch manufacturing. And
thanks to Garth for the note about Calgary.
Quick story: when I moved to Toronto from upstate New York a few years
ago, Canadians that I knew told me, "You know, everyone (in Canada)
hates Toronto." I didn't think that could be true, but reading the
Globe and Mail (Canada's "national" paper, like USA Today) the other
day, I remember thinking, "Gosh, why isn't there more news about
Toronto?" So, I guess the effect is starting!
Cheers,
Robert Swier
