Many regions in the US have few restrictions as to the hours of store operation. It is really neat to shop at 0300 in the morning (perhaps because I worked too late.) Of course, there are still areas where the "blue laws" still restrict business hours. In fact, here in Indiana, our liquor stores still cannot be open during Sunday (except for the early hours of the morning before closing at 0300.) Now, if only the computer stores were open late at night, and early in the morning. I wouldn't be surpised if there aren't such stores on the west coast though. John
