        I am surprised that Donald Trump didn't take credit for this too.

        No Wyoming does 3x as much, the difference is in type of mining as WV is mostly still deep underground mines which are more dangerous, and long running compliance issues within the state itself.

        Oh, I worked in Richmond and Wyoming. All over the phone, with Xerox. I liked them both.

        Richmond is not in West Virginia😊. It’s become a running joke among WVians, that when telling someone in another state that you’re from WV, they will mention Richmond.
