Nukes, Dow Chemical, Rockwell International, Teflon, DuPont, Regulations, and the Trump Crew - REDUX

I posted the piece at the link below about four years ago.  It's still relevant today, and demonstrates why regulations, inspections, and enforcement are all crucial to our health and safety.  Plus, it shows (again) why Trump is an utter disaster.  [It boggles the mind that anyone still supports him.]

As I finish this draft, there's only one entry ("Melgar-Melgar") which has incorrect indentation after line 1.  Tried to fix it, but wasn't permitted to by whatever this word processing program here is called.  All the other entries are correct, but whether or not that will hold true after I click on "Publish" is anybody's guess.  😊  In any case, I don't have time to undo any damage done by algorithms.

Still hoping to have the book done by the end of this month, but that easily could spill over to sometime in February.

p.s.  Just now looked at a preview of this post.  As I feared, the Tech Whiz Kid algorithms pretty well messed up the biblio format.  C'est la vie, eh?  That's okay, it's readable.
