Day 111 at the Meadow
La Tremouille is a gruff-voiced Cambridge attorney who's not new to environmental causes. He has worked on several campaigns against city zoning policies, and on other issues such as the Urban Ring--a proposal that would connect all four lines of the T with a circle line. The geese are only his latest cause.
He's created an e-mail account: save_the_geese@yahoo.com. He sustains goose supporters with regular--sometimes daily--electronic updates.
The tidings from the goose meadow are voluminous and vitriolic. His messages rail against "sick developer types" who are "attacking" the geese.
"Some very reprehensible human beings were hiding behind the facade of decency and planning," he wrote in an update last spring.
The updates often report on the number and health of the gaggle--as well as on other members of Friends of the White Geese. One day last April, La Tremouille reported the birth of two goslings and Wellons' reaction to the news.
"This should be a joyous day," he wrote. "I know Marilyn's eyes lit up when I told her. I know they certainly do look lovely."
