Nicki was browsing through the "Style" section of today's
Washington Post, and found a story titled "The Credit
Score: Are You Ahead or Behind?" in which the first
paragraph reads:

----
Rebecca Prather says she owns her Fairfax County home, has
no mortgage and pays off credit card accounts monthly.  So
she was "shocked" recently when Allstate offered her a
homeowner's policy at its second-best rating."
----

The story is about credit-based insurance scores, and how
they are used to put the screws to unwary consumers.
Rebecca is mentioned in seceral parts of the article, and
is quoted in a few places.  Worth reading.
