MAIN BlD

JUlIA had this to say in the wake of destruction:
I live on Tutuila, the main island of American Samoa. My island was hit by a tsunami last September. One of the villages that was hit the hardest is Poloa. I spent Saturday at the beach there and spotted this lowercase L on the side of the school. It looks like MAIN BID, but it's supposed to be short for building. The other buildings at the school were labeled too, but not with lowercase L's!
It is a tragedy. So many innocent people, misled to believe there might be a "Main Bid", but finding no bids at all, main, secondary, or even tertiary. Dreams washed away like so many legs of neglected uppercase L's. God help us.
