Scott, Well, it is ND and if the bear [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the woods and nobody sees or smells it....I think the owner has that cavalier, "Well, I've never had a fire..." attitude, his insurers thinks he stores glass marbles in metal containers no higher the two feet, there is no fire department and the EPA is way off in Washington. Remember that Tyson factory fire way back in the mid-nineties where people died because the doors were chained so they couldn't take unauthorized breaks. I remember vividly the county fire marshal being interviewed and when asked if he'd been out to inspect the plant he replied that since he'd become fire marshal he hadn't had the time. When asked how long he'd been fire marshal he replied, "Pert near eleven years." And then there were all the Tyson big wigs making speeches how policies would be changed so this never happened again. Then if your were paying attention that same plant caught fire again a couple of years ago and nobody died but they found the doors chained again. At 58 I'm thinking barista might be a good career move.
