Ken everyone will be encouraged to take their own notes. We expect a lot of people
and have tried to design a meeting which captures the most stories from local
residents. See you there.

Well, disagree I do. But, I still like you.
It is that this was advertised as you "representatives" wanting to hear from us
"citizens" about the impact on our lives. You need to hear in our own words. Now
you changed it to someone taking some notes at a table. We insist on the right to
speak for ourselves to our representatives.

Dear Ladies:
I'm writing to urge you to reconsider the format for the OLF meeting next week.
The commonly held view is that your "round table" format is designed to
marginalize the opportunity of us CITIZENS to speak to our so called
"representatives" about the impacts of the Growlers on our lives, health and
property values. We want to speak out to you who are supposed to be listening,
This sitting at a table is not going to do any good at all. We want the
congressional representatives aides to hear what we want.Your view that "
mitigation" is some kind of solution is absolutely contrary to the wishes of the
citizenry, we want OLF CLOSED.
It is time for you "representatives" to get some balls and take the death machine
on on this issue, quit licking their jackboots! Buck up! You know it is wrong for the
military to abuse us with this toxic noise that is ruining our lives and property
values, so act in accordance with what you know to be true instead of like worried,
timid leaders, afraid of the military, afraid of losing the federal pork it delivers here
on pay days. Get some courage, let the people be heard. Sitting at a table
"talking" is not going to solve anything.
