Pretty good article by the N&R’s Richard Barron on the corporate takeover of the Piedmont Triad Partnership, another one of those —-as commenter ‘Farmartist’ puts it —– ‘private bureaucracies’ that ‘market’ the Triad.

But I’ll cut to the chase: BB&T’s Kelly King and his gang are coming to the rescue after PTP ran through the $15 million federal WIRED grant that helped the region achieve double-digit unemployment.

But —to quote Dennis Miller — it’s just my opinion, I could be wrong.
