    I did read it....just don't see how government handouts are going to decrease the trucking cost from point A to point B

    not sure I understand the confusion......its simply what we get charged for a tractor trailer to bring product up here......one problem in New England is that trucking to get product here is expensive because many times, these loads have to head back empty....New England isn't such a great producer anymore....the trucker knows he or she might not have a load back, but will still have to pay tolls/fuel tax/and fuel, so they charge for the shipping accordingly. Don't think there are any subsidies for truckers, and they have to make a buck too......

    I grew up in Worcester, not many places that will live up to Doug's standards for Steak Houses........

    Most people would say One Eleven Chop House.

    His answer is to go to Clark, Assumption or Worcester State to get ladies to go to his frat parties.

    No idea, where abouts?

    Unless it is the Sole Proprietor. I haven't seen that Crab in years. Although I don't go down that way too often anymore.
    It's nicer than what I would consider a crab joint. It is one of Worcester better spots.
    Have you been to Ceres?

    I think what he is saying BADBOB is, it's cheaper to ship by rail to the east coast, then ship across the ocean to Europe,..... than just to ship to the east coast... soooo, maybe we need get a connection in Europe to ship it back to us and all is good?, for the price of an overpriced steakhouse meal.
