    I read Ballot Measure No. 4-12BBAY. First question is who wrote this dang thing?

    ……because mines can produce toxins and pollutants.Is there a mine in recorded history that has not produced toxins and pollutants,especially when poisons are used to help extract minerals?

    What happened to Pebble’s pledge to not build the mine if the people didn’t want it?
