The Old Red Courthouse is one of two must see historical sites in Dallas. It's just really cool. Every county in Texas has the original courthouse unless it burnt down. Seems they all caught fire at least once. Some were set on fire by nefarious entities seeking to destroy records of deeds (Railroads..?). This should be on your TO DO list because it's cool, very close to the convention, and won't wear you out. You can walk there from the convention, take a long lunch and really enjoy this one. It goes unnoticed too often.

But here's your can't miss trip tip: Hit the road to Lockhart Smokehouse in Oak Cliff. Located at 400 W. Davis Street, it's 3 miles from the Omni in an older part of Dallas.

GHS + REACh2 / (EPA * OSHA) = KAOS Or so it seems. The March Edition of TLT, an STLE publication, is determined to Control the Kaos. TLT's article THE FUTURE OF METALWORKING FLUID ADDITIVES explains the impact the GHS system will have on end users, and the impact REACh2 will have on the importation and use of additives in the Eurozone. Metalworking fluids endure a demanding environment and much is expected of them.
