No Way, Dude

Well, I guess Wife and I won't be getting a surfboard this summer. It seems the price is going to spike now that the plant that manufactures 90% of the foam blanks is being shut down. Who do the surfers have to thank for this? The EPA.

Gordon Clark ends his letter with this:
When Clark Foam was started it was a far different California. Businesses like Clark Foam were very welcome and considered the leading edge of innovation and technology. Somewhere along the way things have changed.
So it seems.

    Wow -- That's a sad state of affairs...you gotta feel empathy for Mr. Clark. It might even be worse than Hong Kong closing in Soc-town.

    Why did Hong Kong close? I bet it was the presence of TDI in the food.

    Sloppy Chinese food made by dirty cooks. How I miss Soc-town...

    TDI, MSG, etc... It was either health violations or lack of business.

    I suppose it was inevitable. Good things don't last forever...
