Imagine for a moment that someone is bulldozing the graves
of YOUR family. In addition, they are
doing it to build a giant oil pipeline under your property, and your only
source of drinking water. Then do a
little research on ongoing oil leaks and spills and the effect on drinking
water and human health. How would you
feel about that? Would you put your body
on the line to make it stop?

spent catching up on bills and making repairs to my house that were
critical. It was draining to get this
latest news, and I have been in full pity party mode all day.
