Almost 600 employees, many the sons and daughters of Ecusta workers, are left wondering how they will support their families after owner Purico closed the mill following a bitter 10-month labor dispute

In addition, I was under the impression that many -- if not ALL -- of the Carolina textile mills were heavily unionized, which is why to this day the textile industry in the Carolinas is virtually decimated.

I'm not THAT senior.

Well, my guess is ya gotta be gettin' somewhat senior to double-post some lame excuse about textile mills when the article is discussing a paper mill.
