Somewhat OT: Times Co. threatens to shutter Boston Globe.

 And to add to the list of fallen advertisers, how many remember Mars 
Department Stores? They may have done some print ads, but they did a lot of 
radio in areas they had stores. Their radio spots were done by Jack 
Peterson, who currently does news at WNBH New Bedford. And another 
department store chain from the Merrimack Valley area, Stuarts. They did 
both radio & print advertising.
