Dear Honorable Bob Gatto:
Thank you for “sharing” on the telephone this week. I appreciate your feedback about the “wet and dry” “fracking” issues. However, I respectfully do not buy it.
I have been in close contact with Annapolis Advocates. The attached article clearly states the truth about gas drilling in Garrett County (“Don’t be fooled; natural gas industry is alive and well in Md.” Jan. 31 Times-News letter to the editor).
You may also check with Gov. Martin O’Malley’s press “hidden agenda” to gas drill, too. He has arranged special gas drilling work training in the fall of 2012 Anne Arundel College Community College. I sent this to my colleagues that will stop the gas greed gimmicks.
He also sent me a letter stating gas drilling was on the agenda. This just another example of the corruption in our government, to me.
No citizen should be mislead and bullied. It is wrong. We now have a state government that says right is wrong and wrong is right. God cannot bless bad deeds or corrupt government systems.

Were they really good old days? You decide
When a fellow gets old, it’s not unusual for his mind to wander back to the days of his youth. He may forget where he laid his glasses five minutes ago, yet he can remember events that took place a half a century ago. This is one of the interesting things of old age.
