As Bo Webb of Naoma, WV tells Dr. James Hansen about the massive Massey Energy owned coal complex that hovers above the Marsh Fork Elementary School in Sundial, WV.  Dr Hansen and more than two dozen others were arrested today after they sat down in the road in front of the Goals Coal plant. The protest rally at Marsh Fork Elementary School featured musicians and speakers -- both were constantly interrupted by the counter-protesters throughout the day. The peaceful demonstrators marched in silence, two by two, towards the Massey Energy-operated Goals Coal Plant, where about 200 coal miners and their wives were waiting for the peaceful protesters, including NASA scientist James Hansen, actor and activist Daryl Hannah, and  94 year old West Virginia statesman Ken Hechler, who were among the 29 people arrested.
