Toyota Kentucky plant wins Plant Engineering award

jayman · 12-15-2006, 07:53 PM

Today I received my monthly digital edition of Plant Engineering. The December issue has top plant awards, and the Toyota plant is one of three winners. The other two were the BMW plant in South Carolina, and the Square D electric plant in Lincoln Nebraska.

I don't think you need a password with this magazine. The Toyota article is on pages 42-43

Having grown up on the Northern bank of the Ohio River, I feel obligated to mention that the Kentucky Lottery is considering adding a second number, that the UofK library burned down destroying all three books - two of which hadn't been colored in yet, and that we built a bridge over the river so they could swim over in the shade.

But I won't take such petty shots at my former neighbors because this is a really big deal and they deserve the accolades.

You'll notice I had the class to carefully avoid any mention of that ... but now that you've brought it up perhaps that is why Plant Engineering was even MORE impressed. What with the banjo music and the first cousins and whatnot

Oh, and BACNet still sux. That I couldn't resist
