Polluted water is a lot like pornography. Justice Potter Stewart is not a pornographer but he's an ordinary human being (okay, being a US Justice may be a little bit more than ordinary) on the front lines of free speech, and he knows where he draws the line...

Million Baby Crawl

Posted on November 13, 2009
Remember when the million man march, a vast grassroots movement, conveyed to the world a different picture of the African American man? Move over men, it's baby time. There's another march on the way, only it's not for a million men. It's not a march either--it's the Million Baby Crawl...

An American Cause

Posted on November 03, 2009
If we had a crystal ball and could see a 60 foot wall of water coming right at us, or an F-5 tornado ready to rip our house off its foundation, would we do something to stop it? Of course we would?unless it is an environmental disaster of our own making...

Disclosure: Just the Facts Ma'am.

Posted on July 24, 2009
With subjects like Gardasil, it's not just that law and science aren't on the same level. It's also that we're all blind mice running in a maze with no idea what path is going to lead us to health, and which path is going to take us toward the farmer's wife with that knife children have been singing about ever since nursery rhymes were put to music...

Two Girls and Spain Takes Down Gardasil

Posted on March 27, 2009
I'd like to take a moment here to remember, Jenny Tetlock, whose story has been publicized. Jenny Tetlock received the Gardasil shot at 15, was paralyzed and God rest her soul, passed last week. Bless you Jenny. Your story is heartbreaking, and we all feel your loss...

America is a Place Where All Things Are Possible

Posted on February 17, 2009
Whenever I go out of the country, as exciting as it is to experience new cultures and see the sights, it is always good to be home. There are drawbacks of course--pedestrian chores pile up while you're away. Phone calls, bills, old mail, a pile of pending work that expands a little daily until you finally attack it: that prosaic stuff is gradually taken care of...

Commencement

Posted on January 21, 2009
Today I watched the hope and dreams of America come to life again. I am referring to the inauguration. How much it means. The words spoken and how they apply to the work I do. Like most Americans and much of the world, I was glued to the TV; chills coursing up and down my spine, I watched my own young daughter as she watched the historic moment in history...

Coal Ash Sludge Muddies Waters

Posted on December 30, 2008
It looks like I may be paying a visit to Tennessee. Numerous residents have asked me to come to the community for a meeting on the coal fly ash disaster around Knoxville, and I think I will be going. I know the question on everyone's lips. What is coal fly ash, and why does it need to be contained? The folks around Knoxville are getting to know a lot more about coal fly ash than they ever wanted to learn...

Iron Eyes Cody is Crying in His Grave

Posted on December 21, 2008
As familiar to us as the backs of our own hands, the little main street square lives in our minds as concretely as if we walked those streets, and jumped over the actual cracks not to break our mother's backs; you know, that cozy town square and all the homey penny candy dispensing shopkeepers who know our names--straight out of the collective unconscious--or some James Stewart/Frank Capra common mythos...

People are People Too

Posted on December 07, 2008
I'm going out on a limb to make an analogy here. It's not going out on a limb because it's dangerous. It's going out on a limb because I'm not a lawyer, and only lawyers can make official "pronouncements" about law. But we're all entitled to our opinions...

Environment for Humanity

Posted on November 06, 2008
Fellow citizens of the US, you can not believe all of the current environmental issues that have been coming to my attention. It is scary to see just how much environmental pollution is out there. I don't know if people realize that while it is wonderful to progress into the future and look for green energy, if we don't stop to look behind us and learn from history, we are doomed to repeat our mistakes in the future...

Being Green

Posted on October 10, 2008
Let me start off by saying (again) that I am as green as I have ever been. My concern for the environment and health and welfare for all of us has not lessened, nor will it. If anything, my feeling is stronger than ever, as the need for personal responsibility grows...

A Member of the Human-ist Race

Posted on September 25, 2008
I want to clarify a few things. To those of you who say I am endorsing Palin... Where does it say that I endorse Sarah Palin? Nowhere. At no point in the September 8th blog did I say I endorse Palin. I said she is a strong women. What is wrong with that? Nothing...

I am still Me

Posted on September 10, 2008
A recent blog post touched on a topic which gets me all worked up. "America is in love--again. Remember how we loved Vivian Ward, the pretty woman in Pretty Woman? And who could forget Maggie Carpenter, the runaway bride in Runaway Bride? Or Tess Ocean, the twelfth ocean in Ocean's Twelve? But then there's my personal favorite: Erin Brockovich, who was Erin Brockovich in Erin Brockovich...

Palin Chairs the Strong Woman's Club

Posted on September 09, 2008
When it comes to politics, I'm not about not attacking someone because they are on a Republican ticket or a Democratic ticket. Let?s look at the person, their ideas and what they might represent for us humans. After seeing Sarah Palin's acceptance speech, I came away with several thoughts, one of them that it looks like Palin-speak is going to mean plain-speaking...

Gardasil and Hexavalent Chromium continued...

Posted on September 03, 2008
There are so many irons in the fire this week that I hardly know where to start. But I'll start with the last thing I was talking about before...Gardasil. Gardasil has been associated now with grand mal seizures, paralysis, coma, Anaphylactic shock...

Gardasil

Posted on August 06, 2008
We have been spending our days getting all our ducks armed for bear and in a row--all of our anti-Gardasil ducks, that is. From checking my various areas on the internet, to finding moderators to listening to the tragic and painful stories of victims of the Gardasil vaccine, it has been a very busy time for me and my team...

An Open Letter to United Airlines.

Posted on July 26, 2008
An Open Letter to United Airlines. It was a dark and stormy night. No, really. It was hot, muggy, and off-and-on stormy. It had been that way for days in N.Y. Last Sunday we had been scheduled to take off at 2:00 p.m. but we were held in LA until 4:30 due to bad weather in N...

Doctor's Orders

Posted on July 03, 2008
Take a look at 6697 reports of issues with the HPVR vaccine, familiarly known as Gardasil. Those are a lot of reports, especially as it is a known fact that not all people follow up with reporting their reactions. Did you have a reaction from your Gardasil inoculation? If so, l want to know about it...

Chromium Six--Again

Posted on June 27, 2008
Chromium Six has reared its ugly head again. Now it has been found in Ireland, specifically at a former steel plant in Cork, Ireland. The plant has been closed since 2001 after twenty years in operation stockpiling masses of toxins. In 2003, the Irish Department of Environment took over responsibility for the property...

A Fathers Day's Sad Panegyric

Posted on June 16, 2008
We live in a world of such constant change that we are sometimes left ragged and overwhelmed along the sidelines in shell-shock. Alvin Toffler wrote about this in 1970, and termed the phenomenon "Future Shock." The rate of social change leaves us suffering with "shattering stress and disorientation...

A Little Antihistamine with my Methylchloroisothiazolinone

Posted on June 07, 2008
Theoretically, pollutants inflame me. In fact, it occurs to me that the environment itself is tired of being polluted, and it is fighting back. That's one way to look at global warming. Dirty water inflames me. It's an allergy; I suppose I'm allergic to pollution, or more specifically pollutants...

It happens

Posted on May 23, 2008
It's nearly summer time, and the living is easy. Maybe not that easy, considering the mudslides and wildfires--but summer is still on its way. In honor of the season, I am going to digress for a moment from fighting the bigger battles, and mention something which was brought up to me in an email...

Deep fried Acrylamide

Posted on May 10, 2008
Acrylamide Another chemical has been pointed out by the media. Acrylamide is not exactly the phrase on everyone's lips, but it is nothing new; it's something the EPA set water regulations for in 1974. FYI, it's an organic white, odorless, flake-like crystal used as a coagulant in water treatment, in making chemicals and dyes, sizing paper and textiles and in ore processing...

Remember Gardasil

Posted on April 28, 2008
Don't forget about Gardasil if I don't talk about it every week. They won't talk about it in Australia, either. Hundreds of Australian girls have experienced paralysis, dizzy spells and seizures and more. Australian records are not to my knowledge made public as they are in the US...

Welcome To My World

Posted on April 07, 2008
I have said before that being Green has philosophical meaning. Of course philosophy is purely theoretical, and our approach to living Green can not be limited to the philosophical. It has to be purely realistic. We don't live in a philosophical world...

Circle of Life

Posted on March 22, 2008
Life is all about cycles. Open up any student biology book and it will show you animal life cycles, cell cycles, water cycles, ecosystem cycles and the like. It is all a balance between producers and consumers, and how energy flows through an ecosystem...

A Little Home Truth

Posted on March 10, 2008
I hate to say "I told you so." But it keeps happening. Scientific Panel Says Erin Brockovich Was Right. "Sixteen years after activist Erin Brockovich first suggested that hexavalent chromium in drinking water might be a health hazard, a federal scientific panel has agreed with her...
