ABSTRACT

Communities need to get involved. The other important thing that people need to remember . . . is that they probably know as much or maybe even more than some of the experts drafted in to view certain things. I know I get called into certain things . . . someone asks me about something they’ve been researching for a long time and they’ve put a lot of stuff together and quite often they know far more about it than I do, yet people will defer to me because I’ve done toxicology or something else. . . . I am increasingly impressed with what people can put together.1
