When I drilled down into the article I can see this is the group of truckers that have been supporting us. I should have realized the short excerpt you posted did not give the true flavor, but I hate clicking “usnews” stories and was relying upon an accurate excerpt. Sorry.

I’m never certain how much to excerpt. I know there was a lawsuit against FR in the past, so I generally post no more than the limit under ‘Body of Thread’.

Mostly, I’m just trying to play by the FR rules as decided by Jim Robinson, etal.

I apologize if the post was misleading. Such was not my intent.

Kudos to you, CL, for owning up quickly and graciously to an honest mistake. And perhaps an easy mistake to make considering the duplicity of journalism these days. It's a good habit to ALWAYS double-check the conclusions drawn from quick readings of news stories, and that's what you were doing. One of the things I like about FR is that in case you had been correct, we'd have had you to alert us.

Just my two cents. Thank you, Cyber Liberty.
