Don't Pollute the Water - Plotting

Hey StE! 

Sorry for poofing a bit, combination of life+ work kinda got me a little down and exhausted.

So. I'm not sure if it's still relevant for StE but.

 Riku and Nick were talking about how they could stop the water, and here's one idea. Leak the information as water pollution. Even if the 'contaminants' are harmless or 'purifying', would you, an ordinary citizen, like that they're suddenly changing up your tap water mix? And really what exactly /are/ they dumping into it? First it's GMOs and 6-legged chickens and now this? D<

So that's the gist of it-- media + environmental groups. If your characters are involved in or know someone who is involved with media/environmental groups, is a hacker, a programmer, a mailman, idek, STUFF. We can possibly have everyone bombarding the local media with anon tips on the water pollution. I can volunteer Riku here to get pictures of the illegal dumping if nothing else with his fancy zoom cameras and spiderman acrobatics, but that's kinda handwave. 

OTHERS WELCOME
E.g. Doctors/Scientists/Biochemists ETC.  who can get a sample of the water and tell us what's in it, also cool. c: 

Come on people, LETS GET OUR TAP WATER BACK.

Also MODS, I asked about this about a week or so ago  and I can't seem to spot anyone on AIM, so.  Please let us know what would happen in case they did anything? XD

Naomi would probably be wary of that! She's avoiding attention and since her job involves a lot of documentation of who's using/doing what when or so says my Google research, using her off time to test tap water without any prior reason to suspect it seems kind of suspicious at a time when the police are looking out for the reincarnates. If someone commissions the lab or if rumors start up that the water's being polluted, though, that's a safer opportunity to start testing.

Well, considering what I said above about how Edgeworth would be glad to handle a class action suit, he's going to need some official tests to work with. So feel free to say he commissioned tests.

Oh yeah, this works out nicely! In that case she'd probably coordinate with Edgeworth on what information was going to be released to the network if any, since it's case-related. Exactly what happens might have to depend on what we're able to get, though.

Yeah, what she finds out definitely is going to influence greatly what sort of angle he's going to go for this, but he's got enough personal reasons to support the idea and start working on it. Seriously, the water gave him memories of Calisto Yew laughing at him, most definitely emotional trauma there!

Calisto Yew? Can't blame him there.

I hope so as well! And yeah, definitely his poor ego. At least it ensures he will forever have very negative feelings towards Thunder Corp.
