I somewhat agree with you Pjjjj, but by calling attention to an event that may or may not effect us in a large degree, puts many into the "sky is falling" mentality and seems to be more of propagating bad news instead of looking at the brighter side of the event. THIS event is not effecting...

NO but a fascist would.

Layout, I heard the "people of honor" last night and asked "who are these people of Honor" so I ask you, who are they? Is there anyone who is not going to compromise their principles to gain power and then do a job just to walk away?

Moose, Read the constitution, they are charged with regulating interstate commerce so yes they have the right to stick their nose into this business. I don't like it but I can't argue with it. The problem is the same regardless what the vehicle is - there are bad drivers and these...

I have someone else looking into it. It is not new but then again patents are funny creatures. AMonger, I don't know about others but you really need to secure the drum with more than factory tie points and small straps. You do the math, 55 gallons by 8.35 lbs for water based solutions 460...

Guido, I don't know... look around and tell me. When I was driving a van, I saw all forms of people who should not be driving at all, let alone a van full of freight. They didn't give a crap about anything, and presented themselves they were special and screw everyone else. A lot of these...

The only one I see running against the old fart is Steele, so what's his name?

I think it will eliminate the lazy driver who thinks they deserve to be completely unregulated. Last night I experienced not just a tired expediter, but one from a company seen advertised here who seems to speak about safety. I won't go into details but it is serious enough to make a big...

Patent issue? I looked for a patent application and found nothing. I wonder if the ones I have that were made in 90's are from the guy who is patenting it.

Layout, who isn't normal? We all got lives and work, we all got commitments but without effort, just sitting back and making excuses means nothing. My point is other people have given up a lot more for this country, not just time but in many cases their lives so like this tea party stuff, it...

Hey Andy, How you doing out there? It is utterly amazing that we haven't viewed anti-racism movement in this country as less to do with equality that was gained but rather political power, money and redefining how people should act. By the by I am not coming form some left bastion of free...

I don't buy "too busy" thing for a lot of reasons. I actually believe in today's world, there isn't an excuse that can be made for being busy when it is the future we are worried about. If we continue to make excuses with our 5day/40hour work week, then we are doomed. Imagine what it was...

You know that they are scared with some of the talk of sabotaging the "tea parties" and so on. I think most who are poo pooing these up start movements don't or can't understand what's really going on here. Only if these tea party people read the same things that the SEIU and ACORN people read...

I don't see a massive or even a partial slowdown for the majority of transportation here in NA outside of the specialty markets and services - like flowers or asparagus or fish. The stuff that you do which you do something I think is great, is dependent on an industry that is competitive with...

Well maybe if you know this, but ever since Carter opened his pathetic mouth about the nukes Israel has, Israel has been a bit more defensive with us. If you want to gain an insight on how out present administration works, get Carter's book about the middle east. It is insightful to how the...

Streak, No problems, the EU is seeing flights cut by 48%, no biggy. I don't think there is a lot of freight I depend on with shipments from EU, outside of some pharma out of france and that can sit. But between these two threads (phil's), I am wondering what the big whoop is all about? It...

You know the argument of having someone from the military to be CC is not right. I mean that military service means little in the big picture, but respect for the military and the power you hold does.

Actually he is 90 so that means 94, which is alright with me. No new ideas, predictable behavior and no political axe to grind.

Phil, You got to be kidding? :D There isn't any impact to any ground transportation within the states and thus far the impact is more of a safety precaution than it is a real threat. More often than not, the countries in the EU will most likely be compensated and the interruptions to the...

Actually the ones who need to worry about Iran are in Iran and in the middle east. I think the rhetoric coming from the leader(s) of the country have shifted not because of any new event they have had but because like most of the world, they know we have a different leader who doesn't know a...
