Am very much aware of that. Several years ago was involved in a discussion with someone who said their family was involved in the shipping business in the Northeast, and they explained how the whole thing worked. I think it may have been rust bucket.

You asked me that about a year ago, DiogenesLamp.

Here is a link to my reply back then: Link

And you did remember who had made the remark you were trying to remember: Link 2

You remembered that it was a poster named "WarIsHellAintItYall", who hadn't posted since 2016. I had been on the thread at the same time as that poster.

For some reason I have you associated with that information. It's probably because I recall you providing some very useful and insightful information in the past, not unlike that which I was seeking.

Thank you for reminding me. The old noggin isn't as great as it used to be. :)

I fear that many good Freepers have gone on to their reward. I haven't heard from "Ohioan" in a very long time, and there are several others who's names do not come to me right away.

Some of WarIsHellAintItYall’s posts read suspiciously like Pea Ridge’s or HistorianDorisKearnsGoodwad’s. He or she may have done some research, but I wouldn’t take the claims of personal knowledge and ancestral connections seriously.
