Thanks.
It was a rhetorical question. I knew that when I asked.
Point being... nearly 6 years ago is "not too long ago..." for someone desperate for something puerile and negative to say.
It was a sad story and still is a sad story, and I think a little foul to cite it in this way.
There aren't many towns of 100,000+ where I would feel safer than I do almost anywhere in Cary.
That was true "not too long ago..." And it is still true today.
