Although the details are sparse, thus far, I hope the pending settlement of all lawsuits related to the soil pollution down the hill from me brings the matter to a close that protects everybody involved, and helps those whose health has suffered. It’s certainly been a tragedy of history’s reach into the present.
I continue to think that the effort could have been handled better, and more expediently. Word around town was that the depositions and other suit-related events have been grueling, and I can’t believe otherwise than that the goal of a more cooperative human society is harmed more than hurried by the storyline of government as the people’s protector against evil corporations (which is to say, other people).
