LOOKS LIKE THEY\u2019RE MAKING SOME SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS. THEY ARE, BUT IT IS A LITTLE BIT SLOW GOING, GIVEN HOW HEAVY EACH ONE OF THOSE LIQUID DETERGENT CANISTERS IS. SO THIS MORNING, AROUND 430, WE SAW THEM FINISH LOADING UP THEIR FIRST PALLET. AND SO FAR BETWEEN ABOUT 430. AND NOW WE SEE EIGHT PALLETS WORTH OF THESE LIQUID DETERGENT BOXES ALL PILED UP. AND IF YOU WALK WITH ME DOWN THIS WAY, YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE BIG RIG THAT CRASHED AND IS STILL ON ITS SIDE. AND THEY HAVE TO REMOVE ALL OF THIS DETERGENT BEFORE THEY CAN RIGHT THE TRUCK.
