Guest fox Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 From here: Quote A former Indiana mayor who won over voters in the 1930s is proving less popular with modern city leaders trying to choose a name for a new government center. Harry Baals (bawlz) is the runaway favorite in online voting to name the new building in Fort Wayne. But Deputy Mayor Beth Malloy tells The Journal Gazette that the city probably won’t name the center after its longest tenured mayor because of the jokes it could inspire. original link includes an oops reference to a former congressman (not senator) from my state Dick Swett.

Mormons, dude: probably never even occurred to him.
