Dear Kitty. Some blog 
Hi Kitty. Thanks for your comments at my site. I think that I’v been able to correct the problem, and I was able to read your comments. If you go to my site, click on the link for Brian Blakeley. Brian is a union officer in Canada, he has posted some historic film footage of miner’s struggles in Kentucky. I was privileged to have been in Harlan County Kentucky for the strike documented in Barbara Kopple’s film, Harlan County, USA. Also, I can’t say enough good things about Jordan Barab’s
Confined Space. He blogs on workplace health and safety issues and the politics behind them. He’s a wonderful guy.
