When I was about 5, I went to my father's office in downtown Pittsbugh, Pennsylvania one Saturday. It was my first trip to the city and I was really impressed by all the barge traffic on the 3 rivers. When I asked my dad what was in all those barges he said, "Applesauce. Pittsburgh makes applesauce for the whole country." I beleived that for years. I might still believe it.
