Kid Reporter and Our Community




Good Morning Neighbor:

Virginia Lambert age 10 is now a kid reporter for TIME Magazine Online.  And, guess what she reported on and subsequently became one of 10 young reporters selected to write for TIME?  You guessed it - Our Community and the PSC Incident.

I am enclosing the article highlighting Virginia's work in The Citizen.  I look forward to receiving a copy of her story and with her parent's permission I will forward it to you as well.

What a gift to have a young person such as Virginia to care so much about her environment and the people of her community!!

The things we don’t know | The Citizen Online




Good Evening Neighbor:

What a great article by Ben Nelms - please take a moment to blog at the end of the article.  We need to let the community know we are still out there and still care about the environment!!

Our Neighbors





Good Morning Neighbor:

I am writing this morning asking for your thoughts and prayers for our neighbor Clare Hindman and her family.  They have been informed by hospice that she is now in her last days.  As you all know, the Hindmans have been a vital part of the Task Force and no matter how ill Clare has been she still came out to the meetings to fight the fight.  She has made sure that PSC knows in a very real way what has been done to us all.  She and Earl have been true Heroes - not just in words but in action.  

Also, another dear neighbor, Tracy Robinson passed away from Lung Cancer a little over a week ago.  She has been one of those behind the scenes vital neighbors who wrote many letters to Government officials on our behalf.  She was in her early 40s and will be greatly missed!!!  

Many Blessings To All of My Neighbors,


Connie

Plutonium shipments may roll through Georgia | ajc.com




Hi Neighbor:

Please read this article!!  Just as it was not okay that Alabama sent their toxic waste here - surely something like this should not be brought through our State putting us at risk as well.  Surely they have to get approval through the GA DOT.  Do we have some volunteers to find out where and how this will be transported??

Let me know.

Your concerned neighbor,

Connie

Turn your backyard barbecue green




Good Afternoon Neighbor:

I was just reading some online articles and came across this one and thought it may be of interest this Labor Day weekend.  I think you will be especially interested in the last paragraph on DEET.
