Yes, Duluth is kind of a Jekyll/Hyde sort of town. The flora and fauna are intersting, but mostly harmless. Make sure you come back in the summer. When the days are 14 hours long and the water is warm enough to wade in, the North Shore is magical. At times Duluth seems like the tall ship capital of the world. Well worth the effort. One of my best days of work came one year when I had to do an afternoon small claims court appearance in Grand Marais, which is 100 miles or so north of Duluth. So I got to, I mean had to, drive all morning to Duluth (an easy 1-2 hour trip) and then wind my way up the North Shore to Grand Marais to get there in time for lunch before the 1 o'clock appearance. The scenary in spring almost makes the winter worthwhile. Winter is fun if you embrace winter sports. I try not to. We did just by snow mobiles, though, and we're planning to use them for the first time this weekend.

Municipalities do have bigger fish to fry. Interestingly, the "gentlemen's" clubs that line the streets were made possible by the Electric Fetus' cases. That makes the prosecutor's success in the Holmberg decision all the more remarkable.
