Question to Rick: I haven't really been following the pig/Fairfield debate closely...is the issue that if these pig farms are built in Jefferson County that the smell will reach MUM?
If that is the issue and the farms do, indeed, get built and the smell does reach campus, I would imagine that that would be unpleasant enough for many to want to leave Fairfield, no (it certainly would for me!)? Any thoughts on that? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi: > > If you can come to this historic meeting with the BD of Supervisors on the > MORATORIUM for FACTORY FARMS and LOCAL CONTROL, it would be very much > appreciated.
