Harley gets interest elsewhere

I came across this blog from Oregon this morning, expounding why Harley should come there. I couldn't decide if it was tongue-in-cheek or serious. Either way, the possible relocation is on the radar screens of people across the country.

Still no news as the situation develops. Workers I have talked to say they don't expect to hear any real news until fall, when Harley has already told workers and the public they expect to complete their studies of options.

The options pieced together so far have roughly boiled down to staying, and making changes with a factory operation Harley has said isn't cost-effective, or going somewhere where they can make a new, cost-effective operation.
