Thank you Goosewa for your Humbug article. I missed that article. This is a specific example the help I expected in this forum. Many of us have been following the MID Humbug challenge for a long time. Gooswa had a connection to a local weekly with a story and I then could passed it on to another statewide nextwork I'm involved with.

Email to Tom,

Humbug Island and Humbug Marsh in the news:

Made In Detroit Inc., is desperately trying to sell Humbug to a new developer. That developer/investor should be forewarned:

1. There will be no quiet little arrangement; the media is alert.

2. Congressman Dingell is assembling $3.5 Million to buy the property. Any developer will have to thwart John Dingell and the region's determination to create an International Wildlife Refuge.

3. The USACE and a new DEQ's regulatory scrutiny are not going to evaporate. More likely, they will grow in vigor.

4. Local, regional, and statewide interests are ready to fight the next round of development.
