Yours: "Ah, yes, the Sierra Club... proving again that environmental protection is not its only issue. In fact, judging from the amount of junk mail we receive from them, the environment doesn't seem to be much of an issue at all to the Sierra Club."

I posed the following in another discussion group, in re yours on Sierra Club:

If one posits that refineries only build their 'stacks' near black communities; and those black communities have higher incidences of asthma -- is this then evidence of lawsuit to the refinery? Or are blacks more inclined to asthma when they live around refineries? As we both know, income is the issue here. It is not a race issue. But can be readily made to appear as a "medical"-DNA issue. Or grown into one.

Ergo, an asidem interest by Sierra Club (aka: "Just gotta nail those deep pockets")

Absolutely!
