Among other things, 1970 in the United States brought with it the Kent State shootings, the advent of fiber optics, “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” Apollo 13, the Beatles’ last album, the death o f Jimi Hendrix, the birth o f Mariah Carey, and the meltdown of fuel rods in the Savannah River nuclear plant near A iken, South Carolina — an incident not acknowledged for 18 years.

It’s like a gun- fight in the old West. In this case, the buyer has real bullets while the seller’s gun drops a flag that says "POP''. The buyer has all the advan tages. He has hundreds o f houses to choose from - the seller has only one to sell. The buyer has talked to and bargained with many hom eowners. He may have guid ance, help and protection from his attorney, his bank, or employer. Buyer's pocket computer subtracts Realtor's commission from asking price and starts bargaining from there. His unemotion al approach can be chilling. He is buying a “house". Mr. Owner is selling a “home". Without a seller's Realtor, the buyer is the true profes sional between the two. In the courtroom, a good attorney is the equalizer. In the operating room, success depends upon the surgeon. In real estate, the knowledge and counsel o f a Realtor is the equalizer for the seller.

Industry belched out smoke and sludge with little fear o f legal consequences or bad press. Air pollution was com m only accepted as the smell o f prosperity. Environment was a word that appeared more often in spelling bees than on the evening news. “ W e’re d efin itely making this an annual event," said literature teacher Becky Wagenblast, the staff mem ber who assisted in all o f the preparations. “ It was an awesome experience for students and staff—having all o f the lights in the school turned off. students picking up garbage and transplant ing shrubs and trees, riding their bikes or carpooling to school.
