I visited with a “pipeliner” yesterday here doing contract work on DAPL. Referring to the bitter cold and the mountains of snow here, he, obviously a Southerner, asked, “How long will this last?” I think he hoped I’d say a just few days yet and it should break, I could only say, “March, maybe April.” He got a strange Florida-longing look on his face. My turn for a question: “Are the protesters still active down there.” “Yup, they’re f__k__g with us everyday.”
