Here is the front page from the Riverhead paper on June 3, 1979. The protest was against the Long Island, NY Shoreham nuclear power station.
My sister, brother-in-law and neice were among the protestors and here are the photos to prove it.

Niece's First Protest
If my sister were alive today, she would probably still be protesting. My brother in law and I discussed the event this morning and he agrees that he would do it again. My niece, the baby in those photographs, is a happily married lady living in Connecticut now. I have no idea what her position is on nuclear power and then her interest seeming was mainly on her bottle!
It is obvious that great care should be given to where nuclear power plants should be located. Placing them near high-density population locals is in my opinion pure stupidity. But then, where do they belong? In your back yard?

To bad the powers that be didn't listen in the 70's. I personally don't think glow in the dark green is a good color for me.
(great pics - wado for sharing the memories)
Promises, love your glow in the dark green comment. I agree. But then, you would be highly visible when walking the red road!
Well, we might as well laugh 'eh ? Maybe "we'll" learn Someday.
I enjoyed your article. Your sister is certainly beautiful. Looks a lot like you. Your niece is precious!
Very interesting! I hope people don't get too lazy to stand up for our earth.
