...April 30, 2000 people closed in on the parking lot from the road, the marsh and the sea to make a stand against the plant's construction. From the highway came the main phalanx, marching and chanting eight abreast and hundreds deep. Reporters and cameramen postured and scurried before them like the fiddler crabs that live in the marsh. Amidst the dust swirling up to the whirling blades of police helicopters hovering above, the demonstrators poured over the parking lot.

To publicize their anger and to be photographed, the demonstrators stood outside the high school and hurled bottles and bricks. But when press arrived, they jeered at them and cried.

People in Boston may no longer be sure...
