Appropos considering our recent discussions:

"Imagine a place so saturated with toxic, cancer-causing chemicals that it's
in the dirt people walk on, the air they breathe - even the blood that pumps
through their veins.

The 24,000 people living in Anniston, Ala., don't have to imagine this. Many
of them are living it. In fact, they have been living it for decades - they
just didn't know it. The company responsible didn't tell them, and neither
did the Environmental Protection Agency."


It's amazing how little information is in that article. It looks like a
piece written to garner support for the town's pending lawsuit, but afraid
to actually say anything outright lest they get sucked into the lawsuit.
