If it's broadened horizons, David, my piece was well worth posting. United Mine Workers wasn't very effective at all in the West -- and the NMU, against monumental odds, did a fine job at Gallup -- a really hard-case town to put it mildly. I personally know its setting very well. The positive ramifications of the Galllup strike were considerable across the region. In a far better known situation, the Great Colorado Coal Strike [all three of the state's coal fields], 1927, the IWW -- in the face of great odds, including the "first" Columbine Massacre -- won significant gains. http://www.hunterbear.org/embree.htm Best, H HUNTER GRAY [HUNTER BEAR/JOHN R SALTER JR] Mi'kmaq /St. Francis Abenaki/St. Regis Mohawk Protected by Na´shdo´i´ba´i´ and Ohkwari' I have always lived and worked in the Borderlands.
