Part of me says it's too over the top, part says I agree with Lar. It's not cheap. We had a massive flagpole erected for the worlds fair, that was moved to a car dealership after. They changed their name to flagpole, I believe. Could see it for miles. But I believe they finally gave up. The flags cost something like 50k per pop, and wore out quickly. Lot of snap when a flag that bigs gets the wind moving it.

No, I'm ridiculing Russell Letsons (lame) ridiculing skills. And in doing so, I am asking for all hell to break loose. |

Kevlar might work.

I'm prepared to tolerate Acuity's patriotism. But I'll be scanning their annual reports. When my premiums start going through the roof because the cost of maintaining the flag and the flagpole is busting the budget I can see my tolerance coming to an end.
It hasn't happened so far, though. I got my annual renewal notice a month or so back and the increase in my premium was modest.
It could reasonably be said that I am tolerant to the extent that it ain't my ox that's being gored.
