Borton Who?

I have a real issue with the recent selection of a 24 year-old who evidently still uses dad's Brylcreem to be the point person for the $25M+ River Common project. I wonder what criteria the folks at Riggs Rigged Asset Management used to select this guy? Who were the other applicants?

Dad's engineering firm is on my radar screen because of their involvement and/or support of the impending Marcellus Shale drilling disaster in Luzerne County. Sonny boy just became another blanking blip.

The first line of the article linked above pretty much sums it up.

Karl Borton today will be named the first director of River Common Programming and Outreach, according to sources who requested anonymity.

Anonymity and nepotism are still alive and well in Wilkes-Barre, PA.
