It's hard to believe that people can be as educated as they are and still not get that they are the problem they are trying to stop.


This is about DANGEROUS, EXPLOSIVE, TIMEBOMBS running through our neighborhoods and along our waterways. People may use oil, but we've never had this much dangerous activity shoved down our throats before. Not to mention the lack of plans for containment and response to derailments and spills. To blame this response on "nimbys" is absurd. Go live in one of the communities affected by inevitable "accidents" from this flawed method of transporting dangerous substances and then talk. Bob R
