The Atlanta and Fulton County water districts have proposed a 15% rate increase to offset revenues lost to water conservation. So citizens will be monetarily penalized for doing the right thing. Doesn't seem fair, does it?
Residents Who Conserved Water Now Asked to Pay More.
Rest in peace, old friend.
Phil Chapman April 5, 1951 - April 6, 2008
Comments:
I am and was very sad to hear about Mr. Chapman's passing, what a great soul.
Thanks for the kind comments. The world lost one of the good guys yesterday. He was a very unique and special person and my family will miss him very much.
I'm sorry to hear about Phil - he will be missed.
I always got a kick out of saying 'hi' to him in the hallways at school back in the day. By far one of the most intelligent people in our neck of the woods, and usually I'd make a point to say as loudly as I could "Hey Mr. Chapman!!!" He would always smile, say hello and keep trudging along in his usual attire of a polo shirt and that backpack he always had around his shoulder. Bright, bright man.
Oh Chloe, he looks like a lovely man. I send my condolences...
One of my favorite quotes popped into my head this morning, so it's time for another Quote of the Day post! It also made me think of another quote that I just love, so 2 for the price of 1 today.
"Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time."
-Motto of the Baltimore Grotto (caving society)
"Travel light in life. Take only what you need: a loving family, good friends, simple pleasures, someone to love and someone to love you, enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, for thirst is a dangerous thing."
-Unknown
Oh Chloe....I'm so sorry....I hope Phil is on a peaceful journey now. xxxooo
