Amelia,

It is my understanding that in recent years a lot of the workers in the construction industry were illegal aliens. I have always wondered how they are factored into the employment data. The subject is on my very long list of subjects that I need to research.

By the way, I am very envious of the seven months each year that you spend on the road. One of my most memorable reading experiences was discovering John Steinbeck's "Travels with Charley" when I was a teenager. While I have had the opportunity to do a lot of traveling, the pace has always left too little time to interact with people.

Travel safely,

Glenn
