...jumped almost 100,000 in the aftermath of Webster. Many of the hundreds of thousands who participated in pro-choice demonstrations on Nov. 12, organized by NOW and other groups, were marching for the first time in their lives. Among them was Emily Friedan, 33, a Buffalo pediatrician and Betty Friedan's daughter. "For 25 years I have rarely appeared with my mom.

It's not just that Pittston was criminally negligent in the 1972 flash flood that destroyed sixteen West Virginia towns along Buffalo Creek, along with 125 of their residents. It's not just that Pittston got off the hook for the Buffalo Creek catastrophe with a miniscule $13.5 million settlement by allegedly using its influence with the corrupt administration of former West Virginia Gov.
