Action Point with Cynthia Black 12-09-2007: The Reference Shelf

Today's article and item links:

  • ELECTION INTEGRITY: Pima County Election Integrity Trial Home: Attorney Michael Bryan's blog, from where you can read his first-hand reporting on a trial that could turn out to be “The People's Elections” trial of the year (at least)! He has some good suggestions as well: "Consider giving the cost of one tank of gas to fuel a Democratic take-over.”
  • ENVIRONMENT: Last week Action Point's own environmentally conscious “Compacter” Sandy Clark reported from his home of Springfield Missouri (he's a contributor to both the SBJ and the Springfield News Leader) on “localvorism” which you found very appealing. Following up on his invitation to check out his contributions to the paper, I came across this response from a less-than supportive columnist from the “dark side”. Funny isn't it, how regardless where you live, their winger “locals” sound just like ours?
    You get the idea of who these folks are. They're the save-the-planet gang. Many of them believe a looming food crisis will hit about 2020 when the entire food distribution system will collapse due to energy shortages. Truthfully, between their pessimistic outlook on the future and their bleak options for a good meal, I don't see how they muster enough enthusiasm to get out of bed in the morning.
