Steel mills had air quality rules?
 
When I was a kid growing up near Atlanta, my family would sometimes drive
west to Birmingham Alabama several hours away to see my Dad's relatives
after my dad got off work.
 
Birmingham in those days had several steel mills and we could see the red
glow in the smoke ahead of us in the early evening darkness when the mills
were pouring.  Highway 78, the route from Atlanta to Birmingham and the
predecessor to I-20,  went right beside one mill and the bright glow from
the poured steel actually would be blinding to passing motorists.
 
The days the steel mills poured, no one could use their outside laundry
lines and ash and dirt was all over our car after a short weekend visit.
You could literally see the ash and dirt in the air at the times of pouring
and hours later.  No one wanted to live downwind of the mills.
 
I'm not really fond of our government playing the part of being our Nanny
but the clean air laws sure made an improvement in Birmingham.  The bad news
is the steel they used to make there now comes from China.
 
Now, back to sailing...........

I was born at Kaiser Hospital at the Kaiser Steel Mill in Fontana CA in
1945, been on their health plan all my life.  Little or no complaints
either.  It's kind of funny these days, when I mention this to some of the
Kaiser Permente employees, Doctors and Nurses they have no idea there was a
steel mill at all.  LOL  I worked in the mill for five years and then moved
on to another vocation.

While pulling into slip today, my boat would not shift into forward.  It
stayed in reverse.

Feels like the lever is loose someplace.

Fortunately I was half-way into down-wind slip and jumped to dock.  If it
had happened a little earlier I would have trashed a lot of vessels.

Good way to meet fellow boater?

Any suggestions on trouble-shooting?

Just a reminder to Bay Area Catalina owners....there is a party at Richmond
in a couple of weeks.  Check it out at www.SFcats.org
<http://www.sfcats.org/> .

Some people worry about event being in Richmond.  What is the big
deal....don't you all carry a 9 millimeter?   LOL

This part of Richmond is totally safe.  It is within a reserve dedicated to
"Rosy the Riveter" who helped build the Liberty ships in Richmond during
WWII.

Kaiser ran the place and that's where the present Kaiser-Permanente came
from.  Kaiser didn't want his workers to lose time waiting in a doctor's
office so he brought the doctors to his shop.

TMI?
