In New York State, zip code 14652--Rochester ranked 1st in the nation for toxic pollution linked to cancer. This zip code led all zips in the nation for emissions of cancer- causing chemicals from 1987-2000. Of the 64.4 million pounds of carcinogens released over that period, more than 58 million pounds were air releases of dichloromethane by Eastman Kodak Co. — NYPIRG via kodaks toxic colors dot org.

There's a bright side to the withering of Kodak... Although I expect that digital camera production is no cleaner, only concentrated in southeast asia this time.

I want to photocopy a little zine-like booklet about all the awesome things in Rochester. I'll give it to the prospective students who visit (and lots of other people). Of course it will include little bits like the above as well.

off the grid. the social grid.

How far off grid have you ever been, are you willing to go?
