I haven't thought much about my hometown lately. I grew up in North Babylon, New York, a nice community on Long Island.While searching through WebFeat, a meta-search tool, I came across an article about my hometown: "Babylon's 120th year: fiscal stability, economic progress." (Long Island Business News (Sept. 14, 1992 n37): 19(1). General OneFile). Wow! It's been 20 years since I lived there, and I remember when the town celebrated it's centennial anniversary. I even have a commemorative mug that my mom saved from that time. Without the internet or newspaper databases or tools like WebFeat, we would not be able to easily access newspapers or magazines from other places.
Namaste.
