HOW MANY MORE TRAC MEMBERS ARE FROM OUT OF TOWN?

 

TRAC - totally rotten & corrupt  or    to rally around corruption  or  totally reprehensible and co-opted.  At one point I was aware of at least two from out of town namely Pat McLean and Susan Bryant. That has got me to wondering about all the rest. Yes Sebastian lives in Elmira but as for the rest of them who knows. At one point in time literally anybody with an interest was welcome as a UPAC or CPAC member. Boy did that change when Pat McLean became the Chair (99-2000) and then when Sandy Shantz became mayor (2015). All downhill and far less democratic.

Now it's all about credentials and loyalty. I view Sebastian as the sole visual activist on TRAC and Susan as the sole visual co-optee on TRAC.  If it weren't for her and Sylvia selling out on DNAPLS to Uniroyal Chemical back in 1993 then I would suggest that she started as a legitimate activist before going over to the dark side. Yes there are still possibly a couple of TRAC members that think that the group overall have honest intentions . Whatever the group's intentions they have been long nuetered as a serious pro public interest group. Lanxess and the Ministry of Environment are in love with them which speaks volumes.
