THIS JUST CAME OUT IN THE BRISTOL HERALD COURIER.  I WISH THE PAPER WOULD PUBLISH THE PHONE NUMBERS FOR THESE GOONS SO THEY COULD GET SOME OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE.

Larry Bush survived a combat tour in Vietnam and a dozen years mining coal underground. Then the Wise County, Va., resident and native spent 14 years as a federal mine inspector before an on-the-job injury forced his medical retirement.

Since then, Bush has spoken out against mountaintop removal and other extreme forms of surface mining. He's also made himself a target - coal truck drivers, he said, routinely menace him on the highway.

Now, his enemies are taking aim at his family, and that's where the 59-year-old Bush draws a bold line in the sand.

In late March, two men called the Bush home. The first left a profane message on his answering machine, and the second cursed - and worse - both his grown daughters, one the mother of his grandchildren.

Be forewarned: The messages were profane.

I read the article and though it is disturbing I had to laugh about the caller I.D.  How stupid did the guy have to be to not realize calls don't need to be traced anymore?  I thought it was only 10 year olds at sleepovers (my personal experience) who failed to realize that caller i.d. has done away with the anonymous fun and games of making prank phone calls.
