Interesting story about how Ride the Ducks in Baltimore is now closed. HFE says it was closed due to monetary considerations (the economy, less profitable than other Ride the Ducks locations, less potential). Workers say it was closed to squelch a vote to enter the United Steel Workers union, which was scheduled for this Friday. They wanted to enter the union due to safety concerns.
