I like Schweitzer too. Some say he got in bed with ExxonMobil in order to allow the transport of giant machines bound for the oil sands in Alberta to go through Montana. These machines are so big that they take up both sides of the highway and require every utility line and street light on the route to be raised. They are the weight of seven Sherman Tanks. And they only move at night so as to inconvenience the least number of people. I don't think they've thought this out well enough. The route they plan is very special to me and thousands of others. I don't want it to be spoiled by an unforeseen event, such as the collapse of the road into a pristine river. The problem, as I see it, could have been avoided by ExxonMobil if they had only made the dang things in Canada instead of Korea.
