The whole idea behind a talking army
is to get the right things said to the regulators by the
people.
'Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful people could change the
world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever
has." -Margaret Mead

At every meeting, the polluter gets anywhere between 30 and 90 minutes
for their "presentation" and the public is given 3 minutes a
piece. This is how it works, so it is crucial that we have people
talking and making the statements that need to be made.
Three Minutes:
- Three basic points that need to be corrected which address the whole
site.
- Three basic points that apply to the specific meeting agenda item
- save the last minute for response to the presentation given by the
polluter.
Always say who you are and where you live. It does not matter if
you live farther away but try to add a brief sentence of why it's
important to you.
It's just three minutes, but those three minutes can change the
course of the way this goes. It is usually the new people with
fresh perspectives that wind up making a really important point at a
meeting because they are looking at it with less personal baggage
attached.
