Yes, numbers can conspire against us. But for some, statistics can be a saving grace, a lifeline and validation to support hard work and dedication.

Because of that value, expressed in hard dollar savings, there is little to no talk about privatizing the Salem-based in-plant's printing and mailing operation.
