   be one of them

   The only thing we win is rowing competitions occassionally even though we   
   have advantages others don't like the Delware River , and we have many stars   
   who have not lived here long to row.  Still a long distance star would prove   
   me wrong. and of course there is no way cause I know what the air does to   
   people here   
   I saw a show about a mind reader on 60 minutes. I am making the same claim   
   about pollution, I don't know why I can detect so but I can and I am betting   
   I can detect damages too and I have been to other places. We are not doing   
   much to protect our kids and in fact if measured with clean air places we   
   would lose in so many areas. But you know reality is based on how people   
   want to believe and that which is presented to them by our news. If you   
   don't hear it here then people really don't think its happening. Its   
   happening people and I am here to warn you like no other.
