New Regional Sustainability Group Formed
Sixth Chapter of the Oklahoma Sustainability Network
A group of committed participants has come together to form a new sustainability group in northeastern Oklahoma. This new 6th Chapter of the Oklahoma Sustainability Network will focus on bringing together and unifying rural, suburban, and urban facets of sustainability—broadening to include a regional view of sustainability. We recognize that healthy urban communities depend upon healthy surrounding rural communities and vice-versa. This broadened focus is reflected in the name we've chosen—Sustainable Green Country.

About 100 protesters gathered outside History Center in OK City, 10/9/2006, to demonstrate againt Rove-inspired and -promoted administration policies of war, corruption, lies and greed. Three counter protesters also were on hand-- a couple with a small child who told local TV that they were Bush supporters who just couldn't afford to attend the event. Those who could and did, were offered the opportunity to have their picture taken with Rove for a donation of $1000. No word on how much was raised or how many kool-aid drinkers sprung for a photo.
