There was a piece on National Public Radio recently about the building of
the Interstate Highway System.  Seems that the chief Engineer, the man
responsible for condemning private property in the path of the blacktop, was
so incorruptable he even bulldozed HIS OWN MAMA'S house.  It was in the way.
He never took a penny though he was offered millions for a peek at the
Master Plan.  Quite a guy.  Makes me proud to be an American.
