Alright. Just What's Going on? The Big Question Addressed - March 13, 2015
.
.
CAN'T GIVE YOU "THE BIG REVEAL," BUT...
The Guide's BIG NEWS EDITION for March has obviously been delayed, and "why" is not anything trivial. It's literally a matter of life and death. (3 short paragraphs down.)
We'll try to bring you a "St. Patrick's Events" edition by noon on Saturday. Several of our writers are working on assignments, and when they're done (which will be soon), we will publish that news edition.
The Guide's editor must, for the present, fulfill ONLY that role: as an editor of reports and reviews and feature stories written by others. And the reason why is a big one.
Now, "literally a matter of life and death"-? You did read that accurately. Our editor says:
"I'm immersed in a field research project to find a living example of a severely endangered species. That is the only way to stop a developer whose strictly-for-money activities will (quite literally) totally destroy the entire habitat of the species at issue.
"I have found dead remnants of the species. We need to 'bring 'em back alive' to stand any chance of saving the only place where they live.
"By now you have noted that I have not told you WHAT the species is. Not even whether it is flora or fauna.
"And I can't. Because the greedy bastard developers subscribe to a very sophisticated search service that notifies them of any mention of any aspect of this - on any website, in any news story, in any COMMENT to a news story, on social media, or anywhere. Only private email is safe, and only if no one copies and pastes into their social media account or some public forum.
"That is not an unfounded fear. The developer has:
(a) obtained all government-required permits to proceed with their destructive development, with no reference to the presence of the elusive and severely endangered species;
(b) already aggressively attempted to directly eliminate (read murder) the entire species at the first mention of it on the web (shocking and horrifying what they did, and are willing to do); and,
(c) prepared to launch a high-speed "push" with a phase that would only destroy - completely - and kill and eliminate habitat for the specific endangered species AND EVERYTHING ELSE alive there (which is a considerable variety of species) - and to do it apart from (or at least well in advance of) achieving their greedy money-grabbing goal.
"Beyond that, use your imagination to fill-in the blanks. I can only tell you this is not some 'GMO-corn'-thing. It is a unique species that is millions of years old and about to vanish because of the greed of a few who care about increasing their financial riches and NOTHING else.
"Someday I will reveal all. Hopefully, that will be because we have saved the species in its very unique, very singular, very fragile habitat. And not because I am posting a photo depicting the destruction of something special that could never again exist on this Earth.
"In the meantime, if you know someone in a prominent organization with successful experience in this kind of thing, we need to build the most powerful clandestine coalition possible.
"I wish I could have used more standard references, the scientific name of the species, and, in general, not been so mysterious and cryptic here. I hope you understand. Send me an email with any suggested contacts. Your general comments are welcome, too, but ONLY as private email. We cannot risk you posting something that alerts the developer's web search service.
"And really, wish me luck. I am the only one in a position to go to the site and spend what has already become a LOT of time there. Luck. The endangered species and I are both really going to need it."
