Washington Crossing Park Reopens!
 

One State Park Ranger shared his hope that Washington Crossing Park would become a part of the Pennsylvania Park Service which manages all of the Delaware Canal Park in Bucks County which is adjacent to Washington Crossing Park.   Meantime, the park will be reopened days ahead of celebrations of the Fourth of July.

Coal Country - Fantastic Show, with spectacular scenery of Utah's Red Rock wilderness areas. A wonderful visual experience. Hope you can make the presentation as we want Congressman Murphy to become a sponsor of a bill to help preserve its scenic area so future generations can gaze at its beauty.

While the representative from the US Chamber of Commerce made clear their position on Climate Change (or Global Warming) and the idea of Cap & Trade, Penn Environment's rep spent time explaining why measures to counteract Climate Change are important but did not adequately explain why the legislation as written would work and why the Senate stalemate on C & T. The issue boils down to the difficulty of getting any significant piece of legislation passed at the Federal and frequently at the State level. Given 435 House (proportionately regional) and 50 Senate members (disproportionately regional) their opinions & loyalties plus the data to analyze, it is easier to understand why it is so hard to achieve anything meaningful in a straightforward manner. Furthermore, note the rapid expansion of carbon trading in European Markets with US participation as recorded in Terry Gross' interview with Mark Shapiro (Jan 28, 2010 http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=123037162). Shapiro's corresponding article is in the Feb 2010 issue of Harper's magazine (http://www.harpers.org/archive/2010/02/0082826). At small meetings within communities one notes the variety of opinions and objections to ideas and proposals. Yet decisions are made rapidly, not always to public satisfaction though communities are generally better able to handle their own issues except in major catastrophes. Hence the importance of communities to cooperate at regional levels to compensate for our burdensome and tedious government action (remember Healthcare) and to counter Wall Street and other markets who are always ready to sacrifice the unwitting speculator.
