Yeah, Fred.
Weird tangent here, but that Cimarron plant was the subject of the movie "Silkwood" years ago. My father-in-law was Mayor of Crescent at the time, and Karen Silkwood died under mysterious circumstances on the highway I drive to work every day.
My son-in-law now works at the lumber yard. Small world.
