No Dummies A new lingerie store in Augusta, Maine, is using live models instead of mannequins in its storefront windows. Area merchants generally like it. “It’s like a New York thing — urban, edgy,” said the owner of a Hallmark store. But one merchant doesn’t like it one bit. The models don’t show anything that can’t be seen around any swimming pool, but the display is “tainting the wholesome businesses down here,” complains Carrie Rossignol, co-owner of a video game store across the street. “I think it’s selfish, and I think it’s morally reprehensible.” (Augusta Kennebec Journal) Available in This is True: Book Collection Vol. 12
