Florida doesn't really want him. It was yet another story we only heard briefly ( can't imagine why, it's not like he operates like a dimwitted mafia boss ).

Anyone remember press getting an interview with his neighbors down there?. They fought REALLY hard to keep him out of there, you got the idea he'd slime up the neighborhood- which he did. Then he had to sign something stating that place would NOT be his home- which it isn't. ' X ' number of days he's allowed to be there .

FBI didn't raid his home. It's his temporary perch. And yea, stay the hell out of PA you elderly orange flounder.

35 years ago my parents were in one those accidents on 78 in a construction zone- the ones where a semi hit them from behind, squished them into the semi infront. The thing is, it was right around one of the same spots STILL under construction. Hopefully there's an explanation, 78 has been under construction since the American Revolution or something ( before anyone jumps on that it's a joke ).

I might really HOW?

And wow no, no one knows how to drive through there. Then they stopped patrolling it . Cameras take a photo and send speeders a ticket.

It's worth a literal funeral. I've always considered PA one of the loveliest states we have because it was. Then I guess some scout for one of these landscape murdering companies saw the ' commercial ' possibilities and called his landscape slaughtering buddies.

Before anyone says ' but jobs ', as has been pointed out we have a plethora of already decimated sites near cities where one of those things would actually be an improvement on miles of deserted, rotting industrial sites. Steelton for one. There's others. So I don't get insisting on carving up what's left of beautiful landscape.

We saw that! Every time we drove up ( rats, forgot the name of the road, turn left at Waffle House after getting off 78, left going out above town ) there were the old churches, cemeteries, all the pretty stuff we knew with those huge monstrosities still going up- never saw one with a car in the ugly parking lot.

Bethlehem was so incredibly beautiful and it was impressive how well maintained the old Moravian history was preserved- loved the place. It was bad enough seeing 78 lined with those things, seeing Bethlehem itself destroyed was wrenching as hell.

We had to do a round trip up 78, from Dauphin to 78 through Berks and into Bethlehem. One of the most gorgeous drives PA had- now warehouse after warehouse after WAREHOUSE. Bethlehem? Outskirts are simply shredded. It's heartbreaking.

Then the first one went up in our area, around Millersburg. Luckily a lot of the valley is owned by Amish who simply never sell- so some will be saved.
