More porkers on the public dole. At least for the time being, if the bill passes, the pork pie will be paid by the hapless US taxpayers, not us. <BR/><BR/>I would imagine that the longer term goal is to get us and all the insular colonies onto the US tax roles so we can ante up our cut. That war is gettin' expensive! <BR/><BR/>I think your friend may be wrong about the feds canning the local government agencies completely, Jeff. Not their style to take over so blatantly. They like to hide behind and control 'local' governments by controlling purse strings, setting regulations that must be followed etc while leaving a puppet local agency in place to keep the taxpayers fat and happy.<BR/><BR/>Your dive on spotlight sounds awesome. Wish I had received the message. Next time. Have you decided whether to go to Tinian on next weeks dive?<BR/><BR/>Still no bolt for the steering but a friend is going to Guam this week and will try to find the part there.Bruce A.
