I've been covering manufacturing of one sort or another for more years than I'm usually prepared to admit to, and from the beginning, about once a year, someone would come up and say, "You know, you really oughta do a story on the decline of American manufacturing. The kids don't want to do this. The companies are moving everything overseas. What are we going to do when we don't make anything here anymore?"

As you may know, the World Batch Forum has been struggling mightily over the last couple of years, which is too bad, because the group has always been a good source of engineering information. So I was glad to find this email from WBF Chairman Bill Wray in my mailbox first thing this morning.
