HU - Holiday tomorrow

Just a short note for members outside the US in case they don't know.

Tomorrow (January 20) is a MartinLuther King Day, which is a holiday in the US. I'm not sure if it will, but this could affect the availability of customer service, sale changes, etc

    ..yep, banks, government offices, schools & such are closed and no mail delivery.  The downside where I  am, buses that only operate on weekdays are cancelled even though most people in the private sector still need to get to work.  Where I used to work (an industrial area) this meant a long and dangerous walk along roads with no sidewalks (meaning having to walk on a very narrow road shoulder) with 18 wheelers doing 40 - 45 mph passing by within foot or so while it is still relatively dark out (and being mid-late January, usually rainy [sometimes icy and snowy] as well). 

    Everyone of who depended on that line (self included) signed and sent letters/petitions to the transit agency each year to have the bus operate on this day, but sadly, to no avail.

    It should be a holiday for everyone considering his contribution.
