But I'm not       sure if today IBM still has much of a presence in Endicott.       (Anyone know?)              In any event, it seems people prefer to drive or fly. IBM       had a facility in Somers, NY, a few miles from the MNRR Golden       Bridge station. Everyone there drove or flew despite the       convenient train.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
