(This article shows how far from Rule of Law we've come.  Also indicates that all farming/agriculture interests in the Prime Soils areas of the state unite to protect and defend their land from both HSR and the Tunnel Debacle.  There is a bigger picture and higher agenda to both of these questionable projects and it's time for us Regular Folk to wake up and act.)
