We don't realize how dependent we are on tools until they are taken away.Such is the case with CoreLogic who provides Triangle MLS with TEMPO and Fusion MLS solutions.

They let me embed this clip? How could I not? "Dad, can I have the keys to the rover. Date night on the Red Planet." What a great stroke of talent and effort to drop Curiosity on target and fully functional. Glad to see these folks cut loose and have a little fun with it!
