7. Thanks for the invite. We have been back, and of course Cleveland, and the Cuyahoga
are splendid now compared to then. A beautiful city.

I guess if we still lived there we would get upset about the burning river reputation, but I think it's something of which to be proud. It was bad, but so were lots of other cities pollution problems. And Cleveland DID something about it. And the effort to clean up our mess-when it got bad enough- snowballed into important national legislation that helped other places clean up their act. That's a pretty important silver lining. And there is plenty of relevance to the situation in the Gulf today. Let's just hope and pray THAT turns out better than it seems these bleak days.


BTW I loved going to Euclid Beach Park! Though as a kid I loved the "Dodgem" bumper cars but HATED "The Thriller" roller coaster! (Guess I leaned a few life lessons there about thrill issues...)

Thanks again and I'm glad for the wind turbines -though they probably don't need to be "the biggest" IMHO.

Cheers,

:toast:
