These posters must be unimaginably stupid, in addition to being late,
if they are unaware of the blatantly obvious verities stated above.
(And, if they had a frailer ego than I they might feel that insult is being
added to injury. :-)

Perhaps they consider that pleasing some of the people some of the time
is worth the aggravation ...

(May 17-19) at the Convention Centre?
