Hello Bob and Suzanne,

As I go about writing about mountain top removal mining, the Columbus Free Press is the publication I have in mind presently. So, I would like to communicate with Bob and/or yourself in person regarding some ideas about the article.

You suggested a couple of weeks ago, that we speak in July.
Would you and/or Bob be willing to meet with me sometime this upcoming week ? Monday or Tuesday would work well for me. I could come to your offices if you like.

In the meantime, I will keep working on the article. I am inquiring into how socio-economic factors bear upon the issue of mountain top removal mining in Appalachia; and how opposing sides may be able to communicate with one another constructively.

The tensions (real or invented via divide-and-rule tactics) between environmentalism and economic issues seems to be a useful framework for reporting on this issue.

Thanks,
Tom Over 614 202 0178
