In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

Cramdown Arbitration Stinks: NYTimes investigation, 2nd article in a series
Read the second installment of a New York Times investigative series on cramdown arbitration, a clear and present danger to equal justice -- about which Judge James L. Guill and I warned about in 1989 in a peer-revised article in the American Bar Association Judges' Journal ("A Rush to Unfairness -- the Downside to Alternative Dispute Resolution"). Our warnings were not heard or heeded, sadly: the Supreme Court has rubber-stamped this outrage, with the results we predicted 27 years ago. Enough.
