Freedom of Air

Fighting for our rights of Clean Air in Illinois

 

"No person shall.......be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law"

First, welcome to our page.  PLEASE VISIT OUR FAQs PAGE. This page is also dedicated to creating a space for us to fight for our freedom of having clean air to breathe in our own residence.  The fall of 2006 was when our freedom to have clean air to breathe was taken from us.  We live in a small rural town about 35 miles east of St. Louis, MO.  The location of where we live is very rural, yet because of our location, we are minutes away from a booming metropolis.  So, one would think that our village leaders would be current with new technologies and trends. 

The purpose of this website is to provide you with an understanding of what an Outdoor Wood Boiler is and how it can significantly change the lives of a person, like it has changed our lives.  We hope this site along with our MySpace page will help you see how much of an engineering disaster that an Outdoor Wood Boiler is.

Our Mission:

My wife and I developed this page to show the horror of how lives can change because of the selfish action of a neighbor.  Having clean air to breathe is a fundamental common law right.  We have been forced to live with and breathe smoke on a continual basis because of an Outdoor Wood Boiler located directly across from our house.  We are not just fighting for our own rights, but the rights of everyone else who wishes to breathe clean air.  We hope the information on this page will benefit anyone who has a similar situation, and will find our experiences resourceful in the continuing battle for clean air.


About Us:
We are a recently newly married couple who moved into our first home in December of 2005.  The fall of 2006 was when our nightmare began.  We are an average couple trying to make ends meet, and have been struggling to do so.  We hope to one day start a family, but feel that at this time our financial strain cannot allow us to do so.  We certainly also fear the health risks of exposing a child to a lifestyle of constant smoke inhalation.  We feel that not only our clean air has been taken from us, but also the opportunity for us to start a family.

Please examine the many features of this page, including the pictures and video in which we have uploaded.  These are all pictures of the boiler that we have had no choice in living with.  Many things have been chronicled in the blog section to make this page more accessible.

THIS SITE WAS CREATED TO SUPPLEMENT OUR MySpace PAGE.  In the event that our MySpace page may not be functioning or is dismantled, we created this site as an alternative or backup.  You will see from reading through this site that much of the information is repeated, but there is some information, videos, news and pictures that are not on the MySpace page.

One major difference on this site is the "News" links at the top of the page.  They are not available on MySpace as they are here.  Please be patient as we are always adding related articles to it on a daily basis.  

NOW YOU CAN SEE FOR YOURSELF IF YOU THINK THAT AN OUTDOOR WOOD BOILER SHOULD BE IN OPERATION. BELOW YOU WILL SEE WIND DIRECTION AND TEMPERATURE. MIND THIS BOILER OPERATES CONTINUALLY 24/7 OCTOBER-MAY. WHEN WIND BLOWS FROM THE SOUTH WE ARE SMOKED OUT OF OUR HOUSE. THE OWNER OF THE OUTDOOR WOOD BOILER BELOW CLAIMS WINDS BLOW ONLY NORTH DURING THE WINTER/SPRING MONTHS
