We're In This Together?

On March 16, 2005, Renewable Environmental Solutions, LLC placed a 3/4 page ad in The Carthage Press. The headline reads, We're In This Together. We Live and Work Here, too. We (RES) will continue to investigate all complaints and to focus on any that appear to originate with our plant. We take every complaint very serviously - after all, we live and work here, too. /signed/ Peter J. Samson-President /signed/ Don Sanders-Plant Manager

That's curious because not one Director appears to live downwind from Renewable Environmental Solutions, LLC. Have you seen any of them on the Carthage Square, at church on Sunday, at peewee baseball, outside mowing their grass or attending their children's band concert at Carthage Junior High School? Of course not, they don't live here!
