If you have not had a chance to read and rec SantaFeMarie's diary on the Rec List, I encourage you to do so. It has a very important message re. the ongoing Extreme Weather suffered by those in Oklahoma which has caused extensive flooding and the proposed Keystone XL Pipeline. We need to keep it on the Rec List as long as possible.
This diary re. OKlahoma weather and Keystone XL is excellent and makes a point I haven't read elsewhere, viz, with all the flooding and soil composition, the Keystone XL would not survive without leaking in that soil and weather mix and thereby surely cause massive ecological damage.
Oklahoma flooding - this is not a great place to build a pipeline for toxic corrosive gunk.
This is an opportunity for a crucial message not only to get out but also to penetrate a red state. While poor Oklahomans are getting whupped by Mother Nature. Perhaps I am being too optimistic, but I hope.
Please read and rec this diary (SanteFeMarie's diary,) and FB it and Tweet it and email it.... we must get this word out.
Thanks!
And thanks to SanteFeMarie for a job very, very well done!
