Derrick and all
Thank you for a quick reply.  Good to see the Westinghouse
property is being used and that the gates serve the valley

About a dozen of my National Guard were WE employees.
Joe Zgurich finished his WE carrer in Blairsville.

Better if Westinghouse stayed as an industrial company
and remained a small broadcasting company.  KDKA
was a good radio station, did not have to become CBS
except for the greed to make more money.
