Fleetwash spokesman Marty Whitton said the pre-packaged systems were the only product in the world able to be assembled and fitted by the US military on-site.

A relation?

Congrats Den!

Yay! :-)

I recalled seeing Pappy pictures from your Darwin trip a year or so ago.

Bravo!

Well... he needs someone to create an order-tracking system. And create orders. And keep the network going. And so on. Looks like I'll be employed until early march at this rate.

Congratulations, Batty Den!

And forgive me, but I am amused at your being a subcontractor for Halliburton. Happily, the Halliburton situation is nothing like the media makes it out to be -- but they are the Devil Incarnate to US Democrats.

We make jokes about being employed by Mr Cheney.

But it gets even better. We're building the units for an engineering firm employed by Haliburton. That firm is Kellogg, Brown & Root.


Is this where we start singing "It's a small world" ?

In fact, there is a relation. ];-)

The idea behind these units is the client assembles and installts it, and we don't have to go there.

Suits me.
