Patrick drive, Apartment 501, Satellite Beach, Fla. Sure is up6ettin' t' hear o' more development, a goin' on, in our community. We're a goin't' be developed right out o' our semi-rural environment, an' we'll be enveloped in more pollution, o' air an' water, than ever afore. Guess there ain't nothin' we kin do about it, 'cause folks need homes, but seems t' me that it's a bit sad, V visualize the disappearance o' the lovely farm lands, the new turned earth, an' the shadow o' green things a growin' in the fields, gradually a reachin' the state o' ripeness fer pickin*. It' shorely a goin' t' make a big change in our surroundin's. Sometimes, me wonders, if there wasn't so mtich money t' be made, the folks, responsible fer the, so-called-, progress'd be so interested in promotin' the project. Seems that everyone 's out t' make a dollar, no matter how wey do it, an' it don't seem t' matter what the results il be. First thing ye knqw^ we'll be o'ercome wi' industry, our town, sich a short time ago turned inter a city, '11 be jist like all the rest, a swarmin' wi' too many people, a ridin' in too many autimobiles, causin' too much traffic. Too many younguns fer the eddicational accommodations, too many folks a crowdin' the shoppin' facilities, an* jist too much o' most everthin' fer this nice little area. Seems t' this ol' lady that there's so many things, im­ portant t' promotin' a better society, improvin' the en­ vironment, an* far *s I kin see, it ain't a goin' t' Jbe ac­ complished by enlargin' the population o' the small com­ munities. Seems that more complications 're in the makin', while certain individuals see dollar signs a growin', wherever there's a bit o' vacant land. At times we're a livin', these days, wi' the need o' more foliage, trees an such, t' combat the polluted air, it'd be a sight better t' put in the makin's o' a good area o' timber, a helpin' nature t' cure the ills o' the ecology, 'stead o' puttin' more sources o' pollution by buildin' dwellins on the lands that afforded some help t' Mother Nature, fer years. Man ain't a goin't' quit, 'till there's no land left t' make a dollar wi'.
