While some are no doubt among the elite of the University and a few other 
major employers of the area, I am constantly reminded that many people live 
beyond their means through the easy credit of our era.  The town where I 
come from, Medina, Ohio, had a deluxe development built.  High-powered 
Cleveland execs and members of the Cleveland Browns were among the parcel 
owners.  It didn't take too long before some of those parcels showed up on 
the delinquent property tax register.

Back to the topic of business closures (or perhaps relocation), I noticed a 
"for rent" sign in the window of Meteor Light Labs on 6th and Main.  What's 
the word on that?
