of repacking then someone in the food chain decided to send it to us
because they thought our Union people would cave in. A perfect example
of just how stupid decisions are made by management all the time.

Does make one wonder how shipping 11 million lbs back to Du Pont and
having Du Pont unpackage and repackage the TNT, and then reship back
to Nebraska to be unpackaged again is safer than just unpackaging the
TNT once.

The intent was to convince du Pont not to do that again.
