...there. They reach the edge of the circle, and hesitate a moment, and the singing goes on and they move in. One of you gets picked up by a pigtail and tossed. Another, who goes limp, is clubbed until his hand is fractured and he is rolled down the hill. The glasses are ripped off one of you, and your eyes are sprayed with Mace. They kick and they shove and they are strong, and then everybody is retreating and every available water bottle is above somebody's face, and you know there is no way on God's green...
Sunday, 4:30 p.m. Two thousand protesters after losing the Battle of Storage Dump Hill, have marched to the main gate. A women who identifies herself as Florence "Jones," shouts at them from her house across the street "You're being paid to do this, I know you are! Get the hell out of Seabrook!" Inside information?

The community has visions of teeming hordes of Harvard-trained-and-hired lawyers streaming into courthouses, keeping the diesels running no matter how much nitrogen dioxide...
Contrast the treatment of these miscreants to the reception afforded a gentleman named Reginald H. Jones. You won't find his face plastered across the front page of the New York Daily News. Instead, you might spy him in the back corridors of Capitol Hill, where he is respected as co-chair of the mighty Business Roundtable lobby. His 62-year-old countenance is also familiar in Greenwich, Ct., where his well-to-do neighbors doubtless regard him as an upstanding citizen, hard-working and proud of his son and daughter. Yet in his office in nearby Fairfield, Jones toils...
