From trials to trash

He promised he'd be tough on polluters and that he'd work hard to clean up the Chesapeake Bay, and now our attorney general is rolling up his sleeves to do just that.

On Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon, Douglas Gansler -- a man who gained some measure of fame when the snipers were running around Montgomery County -- will be leading volunteers in an effort to clean up Middle Branch Park.
 
More than 100 of his employees will be helping, too.

My guess is they'll be there well into the afternoon. Last time I was there, foolishly thinking it was a pleasant place to take a walk, that park was strewn with all manner of trash.

I'm glad to hear that Mr. Gansler is out there cleaning up. If you see him, please extend an invitation from me to clean up my garage once he's done at the park.
