WHY ISN’T THE EXAMINER AND OTHER PAPERS PICKING UP ON THIS POOR LADIES STORY.

YOUR PIECE JOHN , I ADDED AS BEING BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED IN MY MY PRESENT STATE , WHICH IS F-----G LIVID !.

D.D.

Last Saturday a crop duster flew right between houses within the town boundary and drift off hit me while I was just harvesting my organic vegetables. I have been sick ever since but I was told that nothing illegally has happen. Now I can’t even drink my rain water any more and the tao water is undrinkable. I moved to Cressy to live a healthy life style. Just a few month ago I lost my breasts to cancer and now I don’t know where to go any more. Damn the unscrupulous bastards who are responsible.
I do apologize if this is not the right spot to tell the story but I am new to this and I am ready to fight the ‘good fight’ if it means saving people to go through what I have been through.

here have been a few fairly recent comments regarding the spraying of poison that I have found to be particularly disturbing. The lady in post No.8, Ella, is one. For a person to have survived such a frightening medical ordeal only to find her water and garden vegetables tainted by industrial chemicals, thus leaving her distressed, is bloody appalling. Unless I am mistaken, incidents such as these are highly likely to cause a major outburst of public concern over the use of toxic chemicals. In the interests of combatting public apathy towards issues such as Triazines, perhaps it would be advantageous if these incidents could be provided to the media to deal with, in order to win over public sympathy. Situations such as this could, and should, become front page news. Why isn’t this occurring?? I would have thought journalists looking for a story would have jumped at the chance to present incidents like this, or is spraying triazine just too hot to handle? Incidents that will motivate public concern must not be let slip into the past but should form part of an ongoing media strategy that unfolds right up to the election in 2010. I am quite convinced ‘Ella’s story’ must be told.
