Alcoa's main research center is in New Kensington, which is the other end of the county from me. I live in Westmoreland co, between New Stanton and Donegal on the Pa Turnpike. 4 hours sounds about right, maybe a bit farther.

I am about an hour east of the Burgh in the Laurel Highlands. Pretty area, mostly farmland, but the county is developing fast, its getting pretty hard to find chunks of land around here. I was fortunate to find mind when I did, and I got a good price on it, even back in those years.

Never doubt that a small group of dedicated people can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
