    Doing it in Winona

    I live near downtown Winona, Minnesota's riverfront, much of which is devoted to truck trailer parking. During the evening dog walk, I had let the mutt run loose in the dark for a while. Guess what he found to roll around in? Drivers from India maybe.

    BTW: Long ago I worked for a company that developed a closed loop household sewage recycling system. (Large water storage tank, all sewage treated on site and recycled.) They were counting on lack of municiple water/sewer hookups being an impediment to south-western suburban devemopment, but that didn't happen in time to keep the enterprise from "tanking".
