He described what port security was wrt responsibility while I tried to point out that P & O was running a freight terminal. I suppose if I cared I'd check the time stamps but I didn't read his take until Peter popped it into comments here. <BR/><BR/>Good for him.Rick Ballardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11082425215912372067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16821859.post-1140812185857745952006-02-24T13:16:00.000-07:002006-02-24T13:16:00.000-07:00Knuck,When I read DtP's posts I thought that maybe...Knuck,<BR/><BR/>When I read DtP's posts I thought that maybe he had read Rick's post and also followed up later on your comment on shared ownership.
