<div>Freelance environmental and outdoors journalist Tim Shuff has written one of the best investigative articles I've seen in a long, long time about the quarry issue. Do take a look - it's a real model of how to construct a thorough expose, particularly
about the corporate and political interests behind an environmental issue. You can find the article "High stakes in the high country" at Shuff's website: <a href="http://timshuff.com/in-the-hills-fall-2009/" target="_blank">http://timshuff.com/in-the-hills-fall-2009/</a></div>

<br>
I need a quick response from each of you about whether to send this letter off on behalf of GREN. Susan K. put it on letterhead with John’s signature. It’s a motherhood-statement of objection to the Melancthon quarry.<br>
<br>
Otherwise, I’ll send it with just my signature. It must go off by tomorrow morning at the latest to meet the deadlines.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

<span style="color:#1F497D">Hi Susan B,<br>
I think the letter is perfect! I put it on GREN letterhead and John had sent me his signature for something else so I inserted it. I’ve attached copies in Word and pdf and would suggest you send the one in pdf since sometimes things get shifted around in transit.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for doing this!<br>

</span><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Hi GREN Exec-<br>
<br>
Attached is a draft letter opposing the Highland Companies’ proposed limestone quarry. Can we send it on behalf of GREN? It’s very generic, since I don’t have the time and skill to write a long, technical letter---but one more letter from a group opposing can’t
hurt, however general.<br>
<br>
I think John is away, so I put my name on it---it must be signed---but is there a better way?
<br>
<br>
Please make any and all suggestions to strengthen the letter. It has to be in the mail by April 18.<br>
<br>
Susan B. <br>
