Dave, being a Forum member in EO, has been asked by a company rep to dispell the rumor. He has tried to do so and received a lot of guff for his efforts. His comment has been made, and...

    Boston faces and places...

    Thanx for the walk down memory lane. I was born in Boston and spent most of my youth at or near many of the places shown, before they were so comercialized.
