Status of Manassas BPL

[Richard Barth]

  I don't know whether any entire towns have done it over here, but 
you do find a lot of large-scale hot spots.  In Bethesda, Maryland (a 
suburb of DC) there is an area of several square blocks in which you 
can operate on somebody else's dime. Bethesda is not a town or 
incorporated entity, so I suspect the local Chamber of Commerce has 
something to do with footing the bills.
