Short: In the tank!

This story has so many angles that I like:

• A wonky/techy aspect.
• An encapsulation of a bigger political picture.
• A story about the possible loss of manufacturing capability.
• A quote that grabbed me because I know it's true from my own experience: [The workforce] “is not like a light switch. You can’t just click it off, then walk away for three years, come back and click it on.”
• A big, noisy, amped-up aspect. 

I hope your curiosity is piqued.
