Nonsense news story leads to investigation! Several hard-coded references to Boston and Fenway Park found in english.xml shipped with OOTP 8! Someone is obviously a Red Sox fan, and shameless . . .

I have reverted to the Eugene Church version, which I see does not contain this obvious bias. (He missed two hard-coded references to the Yankees but those I find acceptable.
