...awesome work to watch guard over our community,” resident Willie Bloomstein said last night. “I want to thank you on behalf of my family.” Residents raised an uproar last month about the possibility that Harvard would house over 19,000 cubic feet of flammable gasses in its new research lab. “Most of us didn’t understand what that meant and didn’t know what the chemicals were going to be,” said Sheldon Krimsky, who lives in the neighborhood...
Residents sharply questioned University officials last night about the consequences of storing large quantities of flammable chemicals in a new science lab being built directly behind the Science Center. Harvard is seeking a permit from the City of Cambridge to house 19,586 cubic feet of flammable gasses, 24,586 pounds of flammable solids, and 1,080 gallons of diesel fuel in the new Laboratory for Integrated Science and Engineering (LISE), set to be completed early next year. The permit process requires that Harvard inform nearby residents in the Agassiz neighborhood of its intent to store dangerous chemicals...

And he also hopes to nationalize the tens of trillions of cubic feet of recently discovered natural gas in Bolivia coveted by U.S. energy companies. A Morales victory may also quicken Latin America's leftward drift - left-leaning candidates are favored to win at least five of the nine presidential elections scheduled for 2006 in Latin America...
