Great article. I live on the Iron range in Northern Minnesota. The Iron mines and assorted environmental groups seem to always be at odds here. This is a complicated issue where people have to decide on supporting their families or protect their environment, a world treasure. One can only hope that a solution that saves the reef yet provides a financial solution for the indigious people. Casino's always seem to workhere in the US.
