  2. Thanks JK
    You provided a service that was once done by our LOCAL newspaper, The Saratogian.
    The newspaper had reporters and photographers, editorial staff, composing room, pressmen, circulation and advertising.
    Now we get news two days later, about Clifton Park and Troy.
    You pointed out some interesting facts, food for thought.
