    So we should install a teamster, if the main complaint is they don't want somebody from trucking to oversee it.

    Nah, they want somebody from CARB to oversee it. Having an "Overseer" just fits so well with this profession.

    So lemme guess this right, they don't want a trucking industry professional to oversee the trucking industry? Why does that seem like putting a business person that's never been outta their office in charge of something in the middle of nowhere? it sounds like that's what they wanna do

    What they really want is a tree hugger who can figure out that we really don't need any trucks, and can all stay at home and live in a cave.

    They seem to have forgotten that the people who lived with nature back then in the caves tended to bash each other's heads in with rocks for fun. Wait, don't tell them. I have this rock that's juuuust right.
