Good news for us.....is it good news for the locals around the new plant?

Does Mexico have the same environmental standards as Washington? Under the NAFTA will Mexico be able to object if emissions from the operation will only conform to the twenty-year old technology which may not continue to be acceptable in Washington.?

I hope it all goes well.....cautiously optimistic.

I doubt Glasstile would make this kind of investment without knowing what is and what is not. I hope for the best.

Oh Don! Don't be cynical, of course we'll be the beneficiaries, meanwhile wear your helmet in case of low-flying pigs. :wink:
