Greenpest,
Well I see you've had 7 responses to your pathetically lame response to Rick Slemmer. So I wouldn't want to be accused of piling on....Curious about one thing, though. Your name implies a concern for our environment. I hope it doesn't disturb you too much, but currently I'm reviewing for submission, a 56 page document sent to my company to procure a bid for our services relating to an environmental remediation project. This is a particularly nasty site, one that we have successfully bid in the past. Of course, since it is federal site, my biggest concern is do I really want this contract. I know that I would have to "lowball" the bid price to win the contract, (governmental procurement procedures, you know), but that would mean we would have to cut some corners to make the job profitable. I just don't know whether the 500K is worth the "irritation" factor. But then again, perhaps I should review the "set aside" provisions, there might just be something there for vicious rednecks, definitely a persecuted minority, that might just be one angle to make the contract worth our attention.
Now, just what is it that you do to clean up our environment? Since the federal government is by far the largest known polluter of hazardous waste in this country, maybe you have some contribution you'd like to make....... I know, instead of adding a buck on your tax return for much needed campaign funds, maybe you could persuade your Congressman or Senator to add another box to check for contributions for the cause of cleaning up the rest of the polluted DOD sites. Do it for the children......bp |
