I would presume so, in the fullness of time.

 NB>> Ah.   Another thing to see how it plays out, as the time approaches...
 ML> Still waiting on the response.
 NB> They probably think they have plenty of time still...

Which along some timelines is probably true.

 ML>> Watertown, not so, as it's near where you

 NB>> I usually skirt Watertown on I81, and then head down Rt 3 again... ;)
 ML> That airport is one exit on 81 before route 3.
 NB> I think I've seen that... but not paid it much mind... :)

Me neither until it became potentially relevant to me.

Some years ago it transpired that US Air filed a fare
of I believe $2.00 between Watertown and anyplace in the
continental US. The person who keyed in the fare probably
meant to type $200, but the damage was done. A number of
my fellow members on the FlyerTalk BBS took advantage of
this fare to bolster their mileage accounts and to ease
their quest for elite status. I presume the unfortunate
keyboardist was fired.

 ML> I was just thinking about age compounding frailties.

 NB>> I didn't think it would be much of an issue... although I forgot that
 NB>> you have the KCl to balance things...
 ML> Although I have been using less of it and consequently not
 ML> carrying it all the time.
 NB> Are you likely to carry it with you to Australia...?

If it's relevant, I may take special care to do so.

 ML> Look for the "promotional fee paid by" statements on all sorts
 ML> of television programs, for example.
 NB> True.  And ambitious prosecutors muck-raking can make things seem
 NB> worse than they actually are...

Ambitious lawyers of any stripe. Kalina apparently never
appeared before any legal body, just convicted himself of
a crime that may well not have been a crime.

 ML> - a lot of the speculation apparently (this impression
 ML> drawn from ancient news articles) made by owners of
 ML> restaurants unfortunate enough to get crummy reviews.
 NB> Sour grape syndrome, eh...?  

Poison sour grape syndrome, apparently.
