This was also the content of tanker cars that derailed in East Palestine, OH two years ago. Four of the five tanker cars were still intact when our EPA came onto the scene and workers were ordered to puncture the tanks and set the vinyl chloride on fire, creating plumes of dioxin that spread for tens of miles in all directions, and a toxic liquid stream that polluted every waterway between East Palestine and the Mississippi. I don't know why they did this, but I would like to see some latter-day Moyers investigate it.
I was looking for a way to contact him a couple of years ago. I saw him as the ideal person to start a Wisdom Council, made up of the most respected people, as something we-the-people could do. (I wrote about it here: https://suzannetaylor.substack.com/p/roadmap-to-the-future-part-two.) However, he had been silent for a long time and I couldn't find a way to get to him. Can you speak about what was going on in his last years?
RIP Bill
