Hi,

I'm doing some informal research on the history of the Saint Francis
Dam, and I understand that a Stanford Biologist Edwin Starke had
some strong evidence that might have proven that the Saint Francis
Dam disaster was caused by dynamite.

Does anyone have any information on Starke?  Where I might be able to
find his writings?  I have searched Stanford's library system inside
out, only to find very little. 

Also, while I'm out there, does anyone know any rumors of what might
have become of the 'Inyo gang' ?  Are there any interested Inyo
County people out there, online, who might know anything? Anything at all?
Descendents of the Inyo Gang?  Modern day anti-aqueduct activists still
living in Inyo County?  Is there any kind of movement there at all these
days?  I have endless empathy for the plight of the Owens Valley, 
and really would like to know if the Saint Francis disaster was an
act of retribution against the rape of the Owen's Valley.

Please let me know,  
Thanks,
Caitlyn Meeks
