In reply to the discussion: Fracking on Ice [View all]H2O Man
(73,537 posts)this interesting: I have frequently spoken about the town of Sidney, in upstate New York. It's where the Town Supervisor Bob McCarthy made national news with his diseased attack on a tiny Sufi farm settlement (trying to force the destruction of their perfectly legal cemetery).
That Sufi settlement is on what used to be one of John & Yoko's Dream Street Farms. I used to live just down the road from it, and worked on their farm.
More, when Yoko & Sean first were finding out about fracking, Sean attended a Sidney Town Board meeting. He stood quietly at the back of the room, and went almost unnoticed. It was where Sean was introduced to some of the PA folks; Yoko and he recently were in the news when they toured the PA sites.
My sister-in-law is one of Yoko's closest friends. She and Sean are wonderful people.
