How many of us remember the commerical that Iron Eyes Cody performed for the Keep America Beautiful campaign in the 1970s? I remember as a child being so struck with a heavy heart every time I watched it. I wanted to cry right along with Iron Eyes. Go view the commerical again.

It would have been wonderful if we had listened back then, almost 40 years ago. But things have gotten so much more worse. When will we wake up and see what we have done?

The tears would flow if Iron Eyes Cody knew our local “casino” Indians are buidling an ll story stucture (hotel and casino enlargement) in our beautiful near Yosemite. In addition, these same people plan to dump their $300,000 of sewage into our creek which flows to a local lake. How sad is this?

Comment by B Whitehead April 8, 2007 @ 1:36 amThat is extremely sad.
