Was speaking with a representative of a company located in Mineral Wells and the comment was made to me that per the news on a radio station they were listening too that the water in Vienna was safe. Say What? Who is putting out this kind of "misinformation"? While the water will for sure not cause you harm in 11 seconds, the lawsuits in play show a long term danger up too and including death as it builds up in one's body. There is nothing safe about this water that we have drank, bathed in and absorbed through our bodies as we walked in the rain.
In truth, I was surprised to even hear there is any Radio Station around here that has News on it. I did not get the Station from the guys but it was not one I was even slightly familiar with?
So, I went back to the Wednesday paper and looked closer at the "Vienna releases C8 test samples". As I looked it over better, I noted that it had been written by a Mr. Mancini; who is the Desk Editor for the paper if I still have his title correct? He and Mr. Cox who was the Letters Editor at one time and may still be with the paper were carpooling buddies with the late Executive Editor- James Smith. Two of them worked for Mr. Smith and he worked I believe directly for a Mr. LaPann, who is supposedly the Managing Editor? Now where this all seems to come together is that Mr. LaPann is said to live in Vienna? Has apparently for some years and is connected to all the movers and shakers in both Public and Private positions throughout the area. It has been my allegation for some years because of the way that the PN&S seems to idolize Vienna and its "small town flavor" old fashioned innocence. It in actuality helps to prevent the residents of the Community find out what is really going on?
So, when I went through the article again and combined that with the presentation by Mr. Metz that the C8 is truly EVERY WHERE that the whole thing began to come together on how the radio station got the idea that the water in Vienna is safe. Again, it is not................
But, it has somehow got put out that way in at least one radio station? As before, I will again say I am not blaming Mr. Rapp for any of this. But, if he is in another of his "misdirection, misinformation, deceit and deception modes, I will for sure blame him for that?
The presentation by Mr. Metz that we are getting C8 from everything and anything is as usual the type of information put out by the City under Mr. Rapp. Why the reducing/ minimalizing of any possible blame to DuPont and putting it on everything else I am not sure? Is it another of the seemingly never ending sweetheart deals that go on in Vienna? Yes, C8 in its more natural forms is formed naturally to some degree but no one has shown it to be sufficient to cause the damage alleged in the current thousands and thousands of lawsuits going forward in Ohio? As you folks will see in tomorrows post, there are NO natural forms; it is an industrial chemical. So for a little "Truth in Advertising, I erred on the above part about its "Natural Forms". And yes, it is found in numerous products, BUT it is a manufactured product and solely the blame/ responsibility of who makes it.
In the City Council meeting tonight, there is supposed to be another "report" on the water quality testing that is going on. If Mr. Rapp insists on standing by the .4 parts per billion as the standard, he will probably report all is well in mudville. IF the Attorney for many of the law suits in motion, one Mr. Deitzler and Mr. Brooks, whose company did the original testing for the C8 Health Project are right in their assertions that the latest readings are too high for Public Safety, then we are again at ground zero. Mr. Rapp is having independent testing to insure that the testing by the EPA is accurate. What is really being said is Mr. Rapp is looking for all the wiggle room he can find for whatever reason? It for sure can and will have a negative impact on his Sales Tax Agenda to milk every possible penny out of anyone who comes to Vienna. Who would come here and drink anything with local water in it?
Will Mr. Deitzler and Mr. Brooks get testing for the folks in Vienna as they did other places? Are there another round of Law suits in the works for those who are sick or from the families of those who may have passed with any of the ailments attached to the C8? Will the Truth come out, or will it get buried?
Monday, I am going to note some questionable behavior on the part of the City in respect to the two (2) Lawsuits against Mr. Rapp/ City over the allegations of failing to follow the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), that I have initiated over the past 6 months?
And for the record, I caught Mr. Rapp/ City in another lie listening to something that was said in the Council Meeting last night. As I say over and over: "The Truth will out in time".
Here is a "Flash", P'burg Forensic Audit is found by the County D.A. to have no Criminal charges in it so apparently it will be put aside. If one were to review the various Laws pertaining to about ANY issue that an Elected/ Appointed Government individual can get into trouble over and they all have no more than a "Misdemeanor" as a Penalty. It is called protect thy own; no matter what. How about Civil Penalties even if only misdemeanors? Again, decades of protecting their own in Political circles has come out to be a CYA process. Does what I write mean that someone did something illegal? No, just means that as is the norm there will be no further due process. And note Ms. Wilcox running re-election is in what could be the fight of her political career. Has she been targeted because she stepped up?
And our job growing Cracker Plant is still twisting in the wind. Will the re-evaluation and necessary "due diligence" sink it for now or forever? Should the Plants in Pennsylvania and Ohio prosper and nothing happening here could be sign of eventual bad news either through not going forward or on a reduced scale?
There is going to be a bunch on the 10 O'clock news through tomorrow on the City Council meeting that went on tonight (Thursday- 25 Feb 2016). I am going to talk more on it come Monday and try to put it in a more legitimate view of what is really happening. Sorry, will not be pretty.
But, will talk sooner ( Saturday/ Sunday), about the C8 presentations. Watch/ read the news carefully and depending on how it get sanitized you may pick up some of the B.S. that went on. 'nuff said.
