I really hated to read this story.

When my dad was alive he had a walking snow blower. When a bad blizzard would hit N/E Iowa he would crank it up and walk around the block he lived on clearing everybody's sidewalk. Took about 20 minutes to do the 12 or so homes on the square.
Nowdays? Call and complain because somebody didn't shovel the vacant home's sidewalk next to yours.
I wonder how many of those 100 "friendly nieghbor" calls were against a little old widow lady. Yeah, a $300 sidewalk clearing bill would help her a lot.
Reminds me of the "Broken Window" story for some reason.
OK, I'm better now.
