Speak Up On Fluoridation #11

City Council Presentation

Fluoride Issues Update

James Robert Deal, attorney in Lynnwood, WA, updates the Everett City Council in the latest water fluoridation issues. This video has been extracted from the city of Everett’s weekly videotaping of their city council meeting.

This week, the end of James’ speech was oddly cut off for no apparent reason. His website is: www.fluoride-class-action.com.

   Thanks Rae. I appreciate being able to watch the videos on Fluoride Follies. It’s helpful to actually see what others are doing and saying about water fluoridation.

   Yes, capturing the city of Everett’s video was tricky to figure out. Essentially it is a simple screen capture method – which compromises the video and audio quality a lot. To make it worse, somehow in the actual upload process the audio and video go out of sync but there seems nothing I can do about it.

   For our earlier city council videos, we just showed up with a video camera. However the angle of their camera is so much better that I opted for it instead.

     Same here…the automatic recording and archiving of Council meetings by the city is a real positive and saves us a great deal in time and energy. Still, I’m tempted to station someone (maybe even me) in chambers to focus on the councilmembers themselves, who are rarely seen on camera. Their rudeness, chattering, giggling, walking out etc. over the past 3 years, spliced together,would make fascinating footage.

       Fantastic idea! I’d love to watch it. And I’ll bet that there are Austin related facebook pages where you could post it (and a lot of other anti-fluoridation comments). You might even be able to sway an election with it. When people see their council members being overtly disrespectful, it simply doesn’t look good.

       In one of your videos I noticed the Austin council president announcing a speaker say, “Tyroid” then attempt to make a degrading big deal that the speaker had mis-spelled Thyroid. I lost respect for the announcer right on the spot!!

       People don’t like SEEING their elected officials belittling citizens. I’m thinking of doing something similar with belligerent Everett council members.

   Fantastic. The archived Austin City Council meetings are easy to download, but Everett and College Station, Texas have both used an extremely difficult format. Congratulations to Golda for figuring this out!
