Yes. Nathan, let me make a couple of comments and then Jim can add to it. The big inflation item for us, of course, is our carbon line pipe that had the big run up and inflation in 2018. So when I look at that — and you look from the peak of July, it’s come down 5% as all the tariffs and purchases have played out. But I also look at it from a perspective. So down from the 26% up during the year, but we’re still sitting at a line pipe price, that’s 21% higher than what we started 2018 at. So still favorable for us from that perspective. But as Jim mentioned in his comments, because of a little bit of deflation there in line pipe pricing, it leads to a lower LIFO for us.

I am back on Kinmen, this time on Little Kinmen, or Heroes’ Isle, the smaller of the two main islands, and I am burning incense at the grave of a young woman called Wang Yulan. More officially, she is known as the “Chaste Maiden.” Kinmen is dotted with shrines to the unknown dead of the chaotic war years; this is one of the better-known. The grave, a disconcertingly fresh-looking large swell of earth next to a little temple, holds a female corpse that washed up nearby in the summer of 1954. According to Harvard historian Michael Szonyi’s portrait of Kinmen, Cold War Island, the dead woman’s spirit told her story thus through a local medium:

Both of Del’s former partners are still around. “Dean Seevers, the top engine man and driver, is very ill, but Dean and Harold Owens are my biggest supporters of the car. When I started, I was the gopher guy, the polish guy. I painted the original A/Gas Supercharged car and kept it looking great. But then I started driving in mid-1964, so I got to run Doug Cook a number of times, Bones, K.S. Pittman, Chuck Finders, and the big-name racers.”

The exact method I use is determined or informed by local regulations, personal familiarity, local guidebooks, online forums, trip reports, and informal conversations with rangers.

Like other outdoor skills, learning to properly hang a bear bag takes time and repetition. And because most backpackers don’t backpack often enough to get the requisite practice, most bear bags are hung really poorly. Like, they’re laughable and woefully inadequate.

Got it. Then a little bit more of a — what management is focused on question. If you look back over the last few years, you’ve had 2015 revenue down in the 20s; 2016 revenue down in the 30s; 2017, up 20%; 2018, up 15%. Generally, I find companies then can’t focus on operational improvement and optimizing the business processes, you’re — in the downturn you’re focused on restructuring, in the upturn you’re focused on inventory and customer service.

Yes, Blake, that’s — you noticed that and it’s tied to one customer, the big swing. So when we had the third quarter deck trailing 12 months, it picked up a very large quarter for TransCanada when they were very active. And they do a lot with us through e-commerce and through the catalog. So at the peak of those projects that we kind of talked about that $100 million of revenue, bulk of that was run through the catalog and through e-commerce.
