From The Editor New York Stories

On the first day of the conference, I had lunch with Tim Steenhoek, of ING Americas in Des Moines, and Scott Nelson, of Otter Tail Power Co., who flew in from Fergus Falls, Minn., to enjoy New York's comparably balmy 30-degree weather. Scott, who manages an eight-employee in-plant, told me of his plan to increase the amount of insourcing his shop does for outside businesses.
