Ho-lee to-mo-lee, smiley!! I had no idea about this stuff surrounding Piketon. Will dive into it.

Ya know...when I was looking into bidding some work on site there in 2007, the situation seemed eerily strange. The construction manager (a very large nationally known outfit) had approached us about looking into doing work there. Hmmm...

I was looking through the bid docs and a 3” thick specification book (mostly federal rat crap) and wondering why a rather small mechanical contractor with no experience working in such a ponderously heavy regulated working/site environment was asked to work there.

That Divine gift that most humans have and Thomas Sowell refers to it as your “knower”? We’ll my knower felt something was really weird about this deal. I asked that the bidding be turned over to someone else in the office. I don’t recall the outcome, but we did not end up working there.

“””That Divine gift that most humans have and Thomas Sowell refers to it as your “knower”?”””

There’s a thought and a half to ponder.

Walk by sight, or walk by the Knower. Walk by some ratio of each.

More covfefe.

Thanks
