Nelson brought us to Texas. And now we're going to use cotton seed oil or used cooking oil to produce two million gallons of fuel for this community.

Money for schools is given through tax money. Every year there is a plan of what revenue is expected. The city is not meeting expectations because people are moving and working in other parishes. Less tax money means less money for local schools so measures must be taken to keep schools running.

I'd like to thank all the members of Local 100 for their unerring supporting and perseverance in the course of these very difficult past few weeks.

You'd almost be saying, 'Frank, you've got five years or six years or 10 years.'
