Wow, how important little words are!
The URL for the SFGate article is misleadingly
"...Bay-Area-locations-Frys-Electronics-closed"
... which is wrong.
The CCtalk thread is
"One of Bay Area's last Fry's Electronics stores closes"
The original SFGate article's title (click on link above to see) is:
"One of Bay Area's few Fry's Electronics stores closes"
Each means something different. ("one of...last" is more dire than "one of
...few").
Isn't English interesting?
Keep that in mind while reading political reporting, too :)
