[or-roots] Darned Census Holiday Greeting

[LinLouVan at aol.com]

I am not advocating for this newsletter necessarily  (although I do find it 
interesting), but it came today just in the midst of the  "Darned Census" 
discussion.
    Merry Christmas to everyone - and happy census  hunting.

Some are amusing or  humorous. 
Some are interesting or weird. 
Some are peculiar or  suspicious. 
Some are infuriating, even downright laughable.
