Yesterday read an article in paper(Mankato, Mn) how the empty big box stores( Sears, Herbergers, Lowes, etc.) are applying to have there real estate taxes lowered. Reason being there valuation is falling every day. That in turn is having the remaining big box applying to lower their valuation and taxes. The city and county are obliging them because they really have no argument against it. So Mankato will have less tax revenue but continue to have a big expense. When those stores came to town city built new 4 and 6 lane streets which now are going to nowhere. Plus all the infrastructure. Those streets still need to be maintained so they will have to raise taxes for everybody else. Plus they built a civic center years ago that the tax payer is supporting because it is not being used. It is empty 60% of the year. They said it is empty because it is not big enough to draw the big names. So what do they do? Spend millions to build it bigger 3 yrs. ago. The new space is empty 80 % of the time so we are going the wrong way. I told you that so I can tell you this. Yesterday I read that article and today I read an article about a co. in Farabault Mn. who is the biggest aeroponic(spelling) producer of leafy vegetables in the world. They just expanded which gives them that status. I read up on aeroponics and after learning how it's done, a light bulb went off in my head. Re-purpose those big empty buildings for aeroponics. What do you think?

Today's Featured Article - The Revival of a John Deere Combine - by The Red, John Fritz. For several years I had been driving by a farm house on the west side of Indianapolis that had a John Deere combine parked in high weeds in a lot behind the house. The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
