In reply to the discussion: Hello [View all]Bohunk68
(1,455 posts)91. Wished I had seen the thread earlier
I don't live but about 45 minutes from Albany, out in Schoharie County where we are fighting against the hydrofracking. We also went through the disastrous flooding from Hurricanes Irene and Lee. I have been working on the recovery effort with SALT (Schoharie Area Long Term) recovery group. I have followed your postings for several years as a lurker and have recently joined DU. I feel a kindred spirit with you. My prayers are with you, brother. Unfortunately, because I did see this posting way too late, and it's my own fault, I have already spoken with Lopez and Seward and let them know my stand, I cannot be in Albany in time to aid you. Perhaps in the future I can be of more assistance.

Thank you, Pat. I watched 'Gasland' last night, horrific and sad. Please take good care of yourself.

So, should we call this action OccupyWater or OccupyTheSouthernTier or is there a better name?

Your Governor had better start listening to the people that live in New York.

While I'm grateful you are doing this, I am so saddened it's necessary.
