	At least that's better than what's happened in Cleveland.
(and a few other places from what I hear.)  Some mall owners are not
letting the Salvation Army in the mall or on mall property AT ALL!!!
The reason, they claim, is if they let the S.A. solicit, they would
have to let any and all organizations solicit on their property, or
else be sued!  There are, however, several "brave" malls, and you
can just guess who will get my business if I can help it.
