I loath watching the news and haven’t read a newspaper in years. My parents didn’t get a paper because we lived too far out of town so I never developed the habit. Anyway, it’s nice to read a positive article even though it just wasn’t meant to be. Sounds like a heck of a factory complex and prideful workers of every strata.
