   they are not demanding enoughSure, a new, safe school is important.  But the activists should be demanding of the governor much more.  He should insist that the mining industry pay abundantly for all environmental and health-related damage that their mining activities have caused; and then, that they pay abundantly for new facilities in compensation, including schools and hospitals, as well as terrain restoration; and then, that they commit themselves to a timetable, and an exit date out of WV.

   Governor Appointed Board Overturns Previous RulingThis was a human rights action for the kids at Marsh Fork Elementary.
   Last year the Department of Environmental Protection denied Massey Energy's request to build a SECOND coal silo next to the school because it violated state and federal law.
   Curiously, this ruling was overturned Tuesday by the Governor-appointed Surface Mine Board.
   I guess when you own the Governor, you own the law.
