I am generally not as resistant to mining as some for the economic benefits but then I am also a big fan or our natural environment. <br /><br />I don't know enough about the issues in this case to make a call one way or the other.Joan Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358008925558240778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-5596948913343754882012-06-05T17:21:36.333+10:002012-06-05T17:21:36.333+10:00Hey it's great to have your link Ray.

Julie is right that there would be more support of mining if more jobs are needed, but since Bathurst/Blayney/Lithgow/Orange isn't since a long way away, perhaps the people in the area are commuting to work already.Winamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065947445339036623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-30760851941361521732012-06-04T20:17:56.124+10:002012-06-04T20:17:56.124+10:00I guess it might come down to whether you have to ...I guess it might come down to whether you have to live in CB because that is all you can afford, or whether you live in CB because you were born in the area, or whether you chose to live in CB because of the lifestyle.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-80981388614130106532012-06-04T20:08:01.526+10:002012-06-04T20:08:01.526+10:00Just a little background! http://thecastlereagh.bl...Just a little background! http://thecastlereagh.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/coalminer-passing-by.htmlJose the travelling padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17328003063287040954noreply@blogger.com
