While we’re looking at today’s PSN, former Altadena son Larry Wilson listens to Rev. George Van Alstine’s research on the crazy Rev. Fred “God Hates Fags” Phelps (turns out he got his start on the Muir campus!) , and shares a memorable quote from Alta novelist Jervey Tervalon.
Altadenans are always too cool for the room: Stacy Wang at Whittier Daily Newslooks at Altadenan Rachel Smith, 30. Smith is the founder and president of Firescaping (www.firescaping.org), which offers resources to protect property from wildfires, and was asked to join a committee to develop professional wildland firefighter standards. She’s working on a doctorate in environmental science, policy, and management; she’s a fellow with the Robert & Patricia Switzer foundation — and oh, yes, she’s an EMT, a smokejumper, and a hotshot. A Ph.D who gets down & dirty with an axe and shovel? Where else would she live?
