Perry White never showed up at any of the Cape Town meetings regarding wind, none of the coalition meetings in the three counties, etc, etc,. If he had, he would have been able to meet hundreds of people who do not live on the water who had concerns and were working to keep bp out of town.

Blogger White and the paper he works for missed the guts of the Hammond, Lyme, and Cape story and would be wise NOT to pretend that they know the the heart of the matter.
