Terry-at-home_view Have you seen "Deep Down" and want to continue the dialogue? Please post comments, questions, and feedback here. We'd love to know what you think about the film and the issues surrounding mountaintop removal, natural resource extraction, energy production, and our own role in it.

What do you think? (Please leave your first name and hometown in your comments, and let us know where you saw the film.)

Thanks for the beautiful tribute to the people of East KY. My wife's family are from the same community in Floyd Co. My parents lost their well water to blasting in Johnson Co last year (just north of Floyd). Mining has never been a part of the community I grew up in until recently. I've had some of my closest friends lose their water and homes to mining.
I hope that this film helps other folks realize that this destruction of our mountains can't continue.
