Forgive tyhis opff-topic rant, but   Borders employess at their flagship 
store in Ann Arbor, Borders, Store #1, voted for a union last year 54-4 and 
since that time the company has steadfastly refused to negotiate. The 
employees are on strike for a basic living wage--some of them have worked 
there for 20 years--and to KEEP, not improve, the health benefits they 
already have. Don't believe me? Go to www.bordersunion.org for more info. 
Support Paste at OTR and boycott Borders until they settle. But this is just 
my sentiment as an Ann Arbor resident,  an OTR fan  who knows chains rip off 
bands, and a pro labor union person.
