Issue: April 18, 2013

Hi everybody,
Just a few quick words to thank you for being you. This week, RN&R
intern Sage Leehey and I talked to two local activists about three simple
topics related to Earth Day. In News, Dennis Myers looked at the health
problems associated with coal-powered electricity generators. In A&C,
Brad Bynum jawed with a punk band that's burning a lot of fuel while
traveling the country. Feel free to explore this issue by clicking the
links below, but don't forget to pick up a newsprint copy for exclusive
cartoons, columnists and event coverage. And as always, thanks for
reading our paper, if not for you, we'd probably have to work for
Hallmark.
Best,
Brian
