I'm doing everything I can to steer anyone and everyone away from patronizing any Morsbach establishments.<BR/><BR/>BTW, it is now Day 17 PDV and I still haven't heard of any new hotel developers sniffing around the Doctors Hospital site. Despite all the Pro-Dry claims that alternative hotel developers would be eagerly lining up for the opportunity to develop Doctors Hospital, I think Hyde Park has been Rechtenschafted.LPBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12317816059809707252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186587935097536129.post-75851593505325639102008-11-21T02:41:00.000-06:002008-11-21T02:41:00.000-06:00Until recently, I was a fairly frequent customer a...<I>Until recently, I was a fairly frequent customer at Medici.</I><BR/><BR/>Attica!
