The PATH Funeral, Part 8 - The people! 05/30/2011
In the final episode of the PATH funeral saga, here is the last batch of party photos. These are shots of the single biggest flaw in PATH's sinister plan -- the PEOPLE (or as AEP thinks of them -- the Soylent Green of transmission line siting)! PATH died because of the grassroots activity of the people of West Virginia, Virginia and Maryland. Instead of letting them divide and conquer and play us against each other, we rose and stood together in solidarity. We refused to take the NIMBY part PATH had written for us, and we refused to follow PATH's strategy playbook. We wrote our own! The creativity of the people was PATH's ultimate downfall.

For such a bunch of "mourners" everyone sure looks like they are having alot of fun. I saw many many smiles that evening, not just from the death of PATH but from the friendships and coalitions that have been formed.

This was one funeral I was very happy to attend and laughed instead of cried.

I'll say, Pam! I love the look on your face while you're bashing the PATHata :-)

I waited a long time to do that and thoroughly enjoyed myself. And it was all legal, too!!!!!
