- Pictures and speeches from the April 26th march and rally are now available, courtesy of Abby Adkins, who wrote us (this has been slightly edited): "Hi, my name is Abby Adkins. I
attended the rally and march to stop the CDF plans in East Chicago. Me and my musical partner recorded and documented the event in hope to keep this thing alive in the citizens' hearts and minds. Here is a link to a web
page we developed with pictures and audio from the whole event that took place on April 26, 2003. I hope this could be some help to you regarding that situation. It was built using macromedia flash, so if you cannot see
anything, you will need the flash plug-in, which you can obtain for free from http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P5_Language=English,
enjoy and inform, -abby.
the web page: http://www.norph.com/cdf.html."
NOTE: For those who are not very technical and are not familiar with flash, go to the macromedia URL (first URL, above), click on this, follow directions and
it will download into your computer--it's very simple, and the directions are pretty straight forward. (This was done by Kim Scipes on May 8th, and it worked well.) Once you have done that, then click on the
"norph.com" link (second URL, above) and it will automatically take you to the web page with pictures and speeches from the April 26, 2003 march and rally in East Chicago. [If you would be interested in learning about the

- Citizens for a Clean Environment will hold a march/demonstration in East Chicago on Saturday, April 26. Permit for march has now been obtained from city officials: assemble at
East Chicago Central High School beginning at 12:00 noon, and march will begin at 12:30 pm to East Chicago City Hall, where there will be music and speakers. Come, bring your friends, relatives and loved ones--even bring those not
so loved!--and let's show our public officials what we think about them building a toxic waste dump within 800 yards of Central High and Westside Junior High!
