Do any of you see what I am hinting at? LET US FOLLOW HENRY FORD'S EXAMPLE AND FIGHT FOR WHAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR! The threat to the environment is more than "simply" a highway through the mountains, it involves the well-being of the surrounding environment as a whole, and the health of the upper Michigan residents.

Last thing on their mind is environmental safeguarding or even good health for their people. They're interested only in mass quantities of raw material to manufacture their products. They are at the industrial revolutionary stage we were at in early 1900's and are ignoring all the lessons we have learned about protecting the environment from ourselves. Time to fight indeed.
