However, even this 1 mile is not far enough, as Dr. Pierpont shows. </p> <p> (b) I urge you to contact Jack Sullivan at (518) 483-1122 (home) for help with your various town and county boards. Jack is invaluable in this regard. Visit Nina Pierpont's website at <a href="http://www.ninapierpont.com">www.ninapierpont.com</a> and go to Articles by other authors. Scroll down to Malone: The town that booted out the wind bums (a paraphrase). Read Jack's "to whom it may concern" letter. (You are welcome to circulate this widely, including reprinting it widely, so Jack tells me. That's why he wrote it!)</p> Current Research Existing Law Noise Zoning Tue, 15 Aug 2006 18:03:15 -0400 http://www.livinginnewyork.org/tug_hill_a_cautionary_tale <p>Sue Brander is an older woman. In her sixties, I would hazard to guess. She's a gardener, raises Morgan horses and, in years past, was a "major event" organizer. Sue's also a professional writer.</p> <p>Sue lives in a little town in the Mohawk Valley, New York. Right about the center of the state (close to Herkimer, NY, if you know the geography). Hilly, lovely area. Lots of Amish around.</p> <p>This past winter Sue showed up on my radar screen: I spotted an article she wrote in the Richfield Springs, NY, newspaper, on wind turbines coming to town. It was obvious this woman named Sue Brander was much concerned.</p> Herkimer County Mon, 19 Jun 2006 12:48:16 -0400
