[Let's pretend, for a moment, you're Noah Dietrich and your boss, Howard R. Hughes says, "How's that [Spruce Goose] coming along? Here, take this coin down to Richard [Pawn Star's Richard B. Harrison a/k/a "Old Man"] and have it and a written appraisal on my desk first thing Monday morning."  Would you want to run that chemical alibi by him, or any Type A "Nothing is impossible" personalities like John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan, or Cornelius Vanderbilt?   The Johnstown Flood occurred because no one in authority could summon the courage to tell Andrew Carnegie, "No, we will not lower the dam for you or anyone else!"  The VKurtB we all know and love will not disappoint: he will find the expeditor/facilitator who won't shrink at taking A Message to Garcia.] I wonder what the folks in Conservation have to say about this...
