Of course. Then they sometimes require a minimum of two per "disgruntled 
employee". EDS seems to have made a habit of generating "disgruntled 
employees". Hell, I've read about lawsuits at the executive level where they 
use that excuse to explain why some ex-bigwig's lawsuit is invalid.

Cool. Halifax is more mazey than that. I don't know if you could do it.

You'd think. Look up and you can see, in the distant hills, some nice houses 
and the hospital. Just don't look at what you're driving *through*. And all 
the houses in one stretch are two half-houses smushed together, presumably a 
legacy of a mining operation or something. Over half are run down, so even if 
there's a nice one, it's attached to a half-collapsed wreck with garbage bags 
waist-high on the veranda.
