:-/ Got it... I thought you'd just picked some random city after the
comment that Marc/Tom made (that I thought was in jest!) about Marc
flying to Panama to fix the servers: it never occurred to me that
things were actually hosted out of there. Given the lack of a legal
presence of a person in Panama and the two contacts listed being from
the states, why not use Redwood City? People's eyes are trained to
look for database/Ora bits when they see Redwood City, Panama and I'd
wager that most people think of drug trafficking.
