"And from a federal standpoint, they protected a lot of very valuable property."

Yes, they protected a lot of very valuable property that the government does not own.

Is this a great country or what?

Long Beach Island and Sea Bright are places I think of when this issue comes up.

Hey, 07055, what are you doing with a Jersey zip in Memphis?
