THIS JUST IN (aka, "DRIVE-THRU LODGING") by Steve Nadis
(DATELINE Cambridge) A car plowed into a motel in Colorado Springs yesterday, injuring none and killing none. The establishment at the base of Pikes Peak, formerly called "Motel 6," has since been renamed "Motel 7." After complaints from customers, the motel has implemented a two-tier pricing system, with deep discounts offered to people staying in the drive-thru rooms. Other motels will soon follow suit in the fiercely-competitive lodging trade. (From Wire services and "various sources.")
