Stop and think about that a moment - if you had just paid a large sum of money for that lamp, you would carry it in your car in some kind of cushioned container for safe travel.

Letters to the Editor Be Positive About Plant Review Editor: Open letter to city governments involved in recovery plan issue: I haven't been following the burn plant discussions as closely as I should have, but Ive seen mostly negetive responses, which have been valid, but no one offers a positive alternative. As a resident of West Bountiful, weve put up with a lot of of having the BARD and the sewer plant in our side-effec- ts area, for the benefit of all the community for many years now. If I had the space, Id give you the list, many Id venture to guess, wouldnt be included, that are yet to happen. I dont like it, but I choose to live here, and with it. a generally accepted tact that progress means someone sac- Its rifices, which has been the case, and may be the case here. I read the warnings for financial and commercial disaster but give me a viable alternative! I urge everyone to read the article in the January 85 issue of Readers Digest, titled, Time Bomb in our Tap Water, which touches on the subjects of both dumping areas and Recovery Plants. Also notice the connecting page entitled It was just an Idea, which is appropriate. Were coming to realize that what touches one, touches all," positive or negetive. This also may be the case here. Weve all of us will have to, for the benefit of future generations. If recovery plants are the answer, and it seems theyre shaping up to be, then our cautious but progressive planning should proceed with it, with cooperation between everyone involved. , , K.
