1. Introduction — Fresh Pond.

We have stated any number of times that the outrages on the Charles River are anything but unusual with regard to the City of Cambridge. Another excellent example is the wild areas at Fresh Pond in West Cambridge. The City of Cambridge is destroying thousands of healthy trees to put in saplings.

And they get state subsidies for this outrage as a part of which they neglect to tell the state about the needless destruction.

2. Karen Parker concerning Fresh Pond.

I was just riding at Fresh Pond on my bicycle.

I saw the work they are doing there, although they are putting some nice plants in that are pretty to look at. I asked some passerbys what they thought about all of the work, did they think it was good or bad, and they said, bad, because they are destroying the natural plants and they are not native the stuff they are putting in now.

I said, thank you and I agree, I will tell my friends.

Too bad, I did not have a flyer with me to pass along.

Just wanted you to know.

3. Request to Use.

You normally say it is ok to quote you.

I would be pleased to post this on the blog.

Thank you.

4. Glowing authorization with additions.

Its never a problem, if it were I would let you know. I figured everyone would be glad to hear this.

The other thing is I mentioned the plants they put at Charles River keep dying and they will at Fresh Pond probably.

The people agreed. They said they didn't like the change at Fresh Pond.

You can copy all of this.
