Huddle House in Greene County -- different than the one in Eatonton/Putnam, or Madison/Morgan County, for that matter. CP's got it right. Talk around other restaurants in the lake area (where business has picked up, they say, in the wake of HH closing) is that the HH in Putnam struggled with...

FF - You made me look! Read the story -- says its the second time that *HH* closed in a month ... (closed in May, re-opened, closed again in June). What's your theory on its relationship to the murders? Or are you just saying it closed because people are staying away b/c of the murders? Why...
