This year the pickings were slimmer for King's organization, Citizens for Limited Taxation (CFLT). A ban on corporate contributions and the creation of a rival organization cut the group's take to around $40,000, though their staff of 500 volunteers freed much of that money for other uses. Another headache for CFLT was that under House Bill 5020, introduced by Representative Piro of Somerville, 85 per cent of the people are below the cutoff point.

The sun is hidden by a crag as though it were the unspeakable name of Yahweh. When Frederic Church painted Cotopaxi, 1862, he deliberately invoked the creation of the world-a panorama of sifting red light, boiling vapors, lakes emptying over the abyss, and a volcano in the background.
