RE: (rshsdepot) Rio Wisconsin depot to be razed

["Paul Luchter" <luckyshow_@_mindspring.com>]

nice with the telegraph pole. You know my feelings about the insanity of
removing these landmark treasures from their in situ sites, someday this
will be looked at equivalently with the deregulation mania in loaning
institutions. It is such a shame, these identifiers of community, town,
village, city, the sites turned into sandy parking lots, empty waste
areas...

what a sad shame
