The rich and famous

Ya gotta love it! Classic nimby. I wish the winds were strong enough off Malibu to make them propose them there. Babs would go bananas, along with the rest of the Celebrity lefties.

Investigators will conclude their inquiry into the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegration tomorrow when they issue an exhaustive review of NASA's shuttle program and a scathing critique of agency officials.

Legendary newsman Walter Cronkite, a part-time resident of Martha's Vineyard, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whose famous political family has a compound in Hyannis, began campaigning against the renewable energy project last year.

Let's give them a coal fired thermo-electric plant instead.
