A great piece of history I knew nothing about. Living history. But this is NOT just a piece about loss. Which makes it all the more compelling to listen to. The people in X-Town solidly recognized the largeness of development, but you heard an excitment in their voices. Maybe a level of outrage,but also surprise that THIS COULD BE DONE. Sean's connection to his own water main made this personal to the reporter. Who could have been your or me. Solid writing and creative production. Definitely good for New England region, but also for anyone who is paying attention to the world. This could be where the Quabbin Resevoir meets the Three Gorges Dam.
