Just watched the show and could say a lot, but I'll keep this short. 1) The Lake Delhi Story will be shown again on Wed 8/7/13 on the IPTV "World" Channel at 6 pm. 2) I found the name "Injun Joe" acceptable in the book TOM SAWYER because it was an understandable example of Mark Twain's time and culture. But hearing people refer to a local landmark as "Injun Joe" in 2013 makes me a little uncomfortable. 3) If I ever taught journalism on the high school or college level, I'd try to use this show as part of the section on "spin." ch Cindy Hildebrand [log in to unmask] Ames, IA 50010 “We know more about the movement of celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot.” (Leonardo da Vinci) In a message dated 8/5/2013 10:49:29 A.M.

Very interesting. I hope I won't see "WE WILL BE BACK: THE DECOSTER EGG FARM STORY" listed on the IPTV schedule some day in the future. ch Cindy Hildebrand [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) Ames, IA 50010 “We know more about the movement of celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot.” (Leonardo da Vinci) In a message dated 8/4/2013 4:29:55 P.M.

Having read the description of the documentary and having watched a trailer for it online, I have the impression that this documentary will not include issues and questions such as the relative values of a natural river versus an artificial lake, the massive farmland erosion in the Lake Delhi watershed, the hundreds of substandard old polluting septic systems in the community around the lake, the question of using state funding to rebuild a private dam, and the special new state law that will put Iowa taxpayers on the hook for massive amounts of money if the new Lake Delhi dam ever fails. I hope I'm wrong. ch Cindy Hildebrand [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) Ames, IA 50010 “We know more about the movement of celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot.” (Leonardo da Vinci) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - To unsubscribe from the IOWA-TOPICS list, send any message to: [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) Check out our Listserv Lists support site for more information: http://www.sierraclub.org/lists/faq.asp Sign up to receive Sierra Club Insider, the flagship e-newsletter.
