No More Shouting About The Sun

I think the woman who used to sell Lowell Sun newspapers at the North Billerica train station is out of a job or something. She is no longer there shouting out, "Do you want to buy the Sun for a quarter?"

They now have a ticket booth in the train station and people can buy their newspapers there. They just place their quarter on the counter, pick up their paper, and walk away.

No more personal touch. No more shouting. They call this progress?
