- I would hope, John, that you actually will reread the last post that _I_
- sent out on the issue. This is the SECOND time that it has been posted
- and very clearly explains why the Mt. Graham site is both sacred
- religious ground and environmentally vulnerable.

- Alternative sites that offer the same features that make Mt. Graham so
- "attractive" to the "scientists" of the Vatican have been suggested.
- This is not an issue of 'environmentalists out of control' but rather
- many different types of groups from all over the country banding
- together to protest a wrong that is being done. If more people were to
- sit back and accept what they are told, like you, then harmful projects
- such as these and worse would happen without any questions being brought
- forth.
-
- I challenge that you, John, are the one that doesn't "imagine any
- harmful impacts from what (you do)." For what you do is NOTHING. That
- is the most harmful form of action that exists.

- >Like all the really fanatical environmentalists
-
- Yeah, John... setting up computer information networks to better educate
- and inform concerned citizens is REALLY radical! Uh oh, what will those
- ~crazy~ kids do next!
