It's a "documentary filmmaker" leading the hysteria on this one.
Anything to make America impoverished and energy-free.
Oh, and did I mention these people are nuts? Specifically, they're eremikophobes.

And the Red Star Tribune is only too willing to assist in creating some sort of hysteria. It really grinds against the leftists that the Dakotas are providing a nice stream of American oil, and there are very few wing nuts locally to provide roadblocks.

The title should be “Jim Tittle, a St. Paul activist and filmmaker complains about sand in rail cars.”

Read the comments under the article, they're crazier than the article, the first one even blames Bush and not in a sarcastic way.
WTH are they smoking up there?

Silicosis is no laughing matter. Sandblasters, miners and such can really suffer from it if they don’t diligently use a good respirator around airborne rock dust. Sand passing by in a rail car seems unlikely to offer the same risk but I would not dismiss it out of hand.

You absolutely cannot make this stuff up. I just hope these retards are not of Scandinavian descent.

Well, naturally-ocurring sand can get picked up by wind and blown around to where unsuspecting citizens breathe it in. So the answer is obvious - we must outlaw wind.
