[cool][#0000ff]Thanks.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]My history with that little "piece of heaven" goes back a couple more decades. REALLY an evolution over the years. Looks like it is going to be better from now on.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I do recall the nighttime downpour of sooty smelly junk from the blast furnaces. That was one of the reasons that I seldom joined in the madness in that area. Also not too keen on filleting or eating the "marinated" fish that came from the outflow water. I was never able to understand the appeal of standing shoulder to shoulder with hundreds of your new best friends...snagging poor walleyes that were already half cooked and stunk of creosote.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Geneva Steel provided jobs and revenue to the valley. But it left a legacy of pollution that may never be entirely expunged from Utah Lake. We are all better off for its demise.[/#0000ff]
