More with Putt-Putt’s mother as she talks about her son’s problems, the passing of his brother from a forklift accident. Local level politics and how Abe Seabolt views the Slabs as a primitive park site for up to 4000 units by charging fees for admission - this begins on #160. Also on #159 is another new article (#158, too) on clearing the Slabs - from the Brawley newspaper.
