If this economic indicator is worth anything, the national news may be
overstating the certainty of a recession, at least in the Pacific
North Wet.
I think the boats you are talking about are out of the range of your
average Joe Six-Pack.
Absolutely. I will do a little informal polling among some of my
contacts selling aluminum fihsing boats, etc and see if the market is
as strong in that sector.
I'll be interesting comparing the results from Boston and Hartford to
yours.- Hide quoted text -

In many ways, the Pacific North Wet is enjoying a bout of prosperity
when compared to the rest of the country. Our governor just yesterday
called for a $3-million apprenticeship program to train people for
jobs in aircraft assembly. Boeing can't find enough qualified help,
and the ripple effect from that is that wages are being driven up
throughout the region.
If we could turn off the national news, I think we'd probably have
almost boom times in this particular region.
I heard that Boeing has orders-a-plenty for that new Dreamliner.
Thats good news as well.

Don.... I can't follow the thread.....
... you realize that my program is spending about 2/3 of that amount
spooling up for FedEx, Honda, TIMCO, and we don't have a clue who else
is coming at Guilford Technical Community College at the Greensboro
Airport (GSO)? I've done nothing but write specifications and POs
since November.... we will probably end up with the largest and best
equipped aviation facility east of the Mississippi.
The Guilford County Schools are looking at a feeder magnet school,
too.
Can you give me more info on what Easley is saying....
