I don't know if you guys remember it, but some years ago TVA was making noise about developing some of the Land between the lakes. As I remember, there was some discussion about hotels, motels, and amusement park stuff. This basically violated the understanding/agreement that existed when the original owners had to give up their property to TVA, that it would never be developed. As would be expected, the families of the people who had lived at LBL were up in arms. After some discussions between the politicians and TVA leadership, TVA pretty much thumbed their nose at the people's and politician's objections. Anyway after much cussin and discussing, the politicians ended up telling TVA that it had been created by the politicians and it could also be taken out or done away with by the politicians and TVA backed down. The best I remember this was in the same time frame during which TVA was handing out some sizeable bonuses to management and supervisors that were supposedly making some great management decisions. Does any of this sound familiar? Just the same old BS!
