OK one more thing political.

The EPA finally put a temporary halt to Mountain Top Removal.

Quick details:

2000 miles of streams destroyed/obliterated/gone from the face of this earth.
500 mountains gone.

Do you need to know more?

And something most people don't know is that the coal removed is a very high grade, low sulpher coal that is used for steel making...

IN CHINA!

That's right, it's shipped off to China for the smelters.

Public comment period ends the 25th.

Send your note to the EPA commending it for taking a stand, it only takes a couple of minutes.

Thanks,
Albert
