I live in Longview, WA.

The Reynolds Aluminum mill here shut down because they no longer could afford the electricity bills. So far, no one has established any kind of business to replace Reynolds.

I’ve been to a Red Robin restaurant once, never again.

My husband used to work at the former Alcoa aluminum mill in Vancouver before they shut it down and disassembled everything in the plant. The BPA had a heavy hand in both the Reynolds and Alcoa shutdowns. Between the two plant shutdowns, a very large segment of workers became unemployed.

We like to give restaurants two chances. If they blow the second one, we never go back. There are places where once is quite enough, however.
