Sparrows Point is more than 2,500 jobs

Raised from comments. Good point by Bill Goodman:

Jay, the Sun keeps saying that the Point employs 2500 people. That number is the number directly employed by Mittal. There are actually close to 6000 people employed at the point, which included a floating number of between 3000 & 3500 contractors, and roughly another 1000 - 1200 people who's business' only function is to support this massive plant's needs.
