For the record, the same article appears in the Missoulian: <br /> <br />http://www.missoulian.com/articles/2005/10/30/breaker/doc436405640a4cc947450090.txt <br /> <br />There is one additional paragraph in the Missoulian version missing from the dfw version, next to the last paragraph above: <br /> <br />"I’m ***ed tired of subsidizing the railroad in Montana. Every time they shut down another elevator, more trucks run over our highways. Whenever they ship grain from Iowa, BNSF is the conduit to subsidize other farmers.” <br /> <br />Seems some folks think it is the railroads that are being subsidized, not necessarily the highways.
