    A very memorable tour of the city! Thanks, hopefully others will chime in with captions for the photos. Welcome back the state is worse off and getting close to financial insolvency, operationally dysfunctional and citizen cynicism.

    Frick and Carnegie were true robber barrons,who enriched the nation.
    They supplied hundreds of thousand of good,industrial jobs to the Steel City and the rest of America. This included mining, railroads, shipping, banking, the auto industry and steel to build a great infrastructure, including the GW Bridge.
    Our “new” robber barrons moved those jobs out of America 25 years ago and sent most of them to Red China to exploit cheap labor and side-step pollution laws,here. Public union pension funds are invested in this rape of America to their everlasting shame!
    In their last meeting in NYC, Frick assured Carnegie that he’d meet him in Hell, because that’s where they’d both be going. It’s surely true,but they deserve a higher “ring” than the likes of Stan O’Neal, Fuld, Bush and and our greedy Federal Reserve,all of whom have
    made a Faustian bargain at the expense of the American people.
    On a positive note?
    There’sa pawnshop, on a corner, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
    And I walk up and down ‘neath the clock.
