"DO THE LOCO-MOTION WITH ME"

First off some interesting meetings to let you know about this coming week;

Tuesday October 27, at Morley Library in Meeting room "A"
A presentation by Nachy Kanfer Ohio representative of the Sierra Club for an informal discussion about the future AMP-OHIO coal burning power plant to be built in Meigs County Ohio. Along with Painesville's financial involvement in this project. This plant could have an impact on Painesvilles Electric rates for the next 50 years.
Meeting to start promptly at 6:30p.m.
************************************************************************************
Just got an e-mail today the EPA will not issue permits to build this plant presently and a decision will not be announced before summer of 2010.
To some of you who might have an interest Painesville along with other AMP communities invested in a new power plant called Prarie States. The cost of construction has risen a Million Dollars a day for the last six months. What a deal this will be in the end. See if anyone mentioned this at the council meeting?
Thursday October 27,2009 all AMP-OHIO members will vote on the the Meigs County Power Plant I can only hope that reason will enter into this.

Andy Flock's Town Hall Meeting this Thursday at 7:00p.m. at the "New Huntington Elementary School" on Elm St. in Painesville .
A representative from Senator Sherrod Browns office will be there to answer questions you might have about the proposed Healthcare Bill now in the Senate.
Please feel free to ask your questions, but people will be asked to leave if they become belligerent.
Please remember this is to ask questions on what is or is not covered in this bill.

To some of you that believe this whole Healthcare debate is taking this Country down the wrong path.
On Thursday November 5, 2009 at noon people are asked to meet at Veterans Park to let our Congressional Representative know "to keep there hands off of your healthcare" A fellow poster let me know about this and asked to post it on the blog.
You can get more information by going to mailbag@afp-mail.com or Ustream.com
************************************************************************************* A short report on the healthcare presentation, around 60 people attended and as a whole everyone acted like I would expect Americans to act. I felt the mood of the audience was against a public option and had good reason to wonder where this agreement would take us I would have to agree with them. The Representative could not believe that an employer would drop there healthcare program and make you take the government option? Really most employers would jump at this. The problem right now seems until the Senate and Congress says here's the Bill we for the most part don't know whats proposed. Again I want to thank the people in attendance on how well they conducted themselves.

The reason for the Locomotion title?
Understand that a "Jalapeno Loco Restaurant" might move into the recently vacated "Storm Cellar". Just hope they weren't told they would receive free electricity?
