    They pulled the first two bodies from the river today. They were found in a red pickup truck. They might’ve been either taking a break or gettin ready to haul ### off the bridge once they got word. They can’t get to any of the rest yet.

    I saw that too, about the workers nationalities, and pretty much bolsters the fact, Americans just want to push buttons, get the ferrin' guy to fill potholes at 1am., for $26/hour, I might add. I'm with you, gonna make a big deal out of this, when it comes down to human nature. As long as humans are in control, you can't have 0 risk. The captain was sound asleep, and "Ensign Ricky" was at the helm. "Just get 'er past the bridge, I'm going to bed". The media and investigators have to make it sound like there has to be a complicated, valid reason for such a calamity, when it just boils down to a screwup of unimaginable proportions.
    I agree, I admire your enthusiasm, but I bet many of those containers were empty, and people from other countries aren't that stupid to buy OUR products going that way.
