[Lapg] Fw: Screening of Crude (9/15) in Burbank

[Joan Stevens]

Anybody want to carpool from Eagle Rock area?
 "...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even 
if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is

very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and

Posted on August 24, 2010 by Jack Eidt 
Keep in mind the ongoing scientific research regarding the undersea plume of oil 
and dissolved methane gas in the Gulf of Mexico from 3,200 to 4,300 feet below 
the surface. Studies estimated it more than a mile wide, 650 feet thick and at
