Congratulations to Gettysburg College and the College Democrats for landing Governor Dean! I personally ache that I have a council meeting at that precise time and that since it's the end of the year, it's a budget meeting I cannot miss. Ironically enough, the League of Women Voters also scheduled the county's only... -ONLY- local state house/senate candidates forum for that night as well. All things being equal this would be great. But between not being able to attend myself and being a media vaccuum for that days news as well, all I want to do is scream... Yeearrrgh! - Herb
