In the last decade, Fleet Bank ate up Bank Of Boston, BayBank, and Shawmut. Now a bigger fish has come along: Fleet Swallowed By Bank Of America. The good news is, Bank Of America has virtually no presence in New England, so there isn't a lot of job duplication (i.e. large layoffs). The most pressing issue the Globe doesn't address is, of course, what will the FleetCenter and FleetBoston Pavilion be called?
