Nearest neighbor to my step fathers property was almost 1/2 a mile away. Folks were not nearly as friendly as the south.

I know GMC had a plant making trucks about 45 miles away. I think Toyota also had a plant not too far away...of course supervised by Japanese. The Ohio River was splendid for fishing if you like carp that glow in the dark

I work in oil and gas, and in the Gulf of Mexico for over 10 years. Those platforms were being abandoned long before Keystone became a hot topic. Lots of those wells have been producing for 20 plus years and just don't make enough money to operate anymore.

Also reel - how does oil and gas destroy the fishing in Florida but it somehow makes it great over in Louisiana? Florida's water problem is overpopulation, not air pollution.
