7. And yesterday you were upset that there was no dioxin testing being done at all.

I, for one, am glad to see that progress is being made, just as I told you to expect in your threads about the matter yesterday (or the day before, whenever it was) because to think otherwise is to buy into some sort of conspiracy that Regan, Buttigieg, Biden, etc. are somehow all corrupt and in the pocket of """Big Rail.""" As I asked someone else yesterday, why would this administration not want to do the right thing? Can you answer that?

Oh, and as the EPA Administrator said: "In response to concerns shared with me by residents, EPA will require Norfolk Southern to sample directly for dioxins under the agency’s oversight and direct the company to conduct immediate clean up if contaminants from the derailment are found at levels that jeopardize people’s health."
