I am posting this comment as a means of providing Mr. Ken Burns a contact of a person who lived, experienced and survived the Dust Bowl days of the 1930's in the Oklahoma panhandle. That person is my mother, Margaret Lindley, who was born September 4, 1921 at the Long Farms, which is located 4 miles north of Optima, Oklahoma. This farm location is in Texas County Oklahoma of the Oklahoma panhandle. She has excellent photos of the clouds of the dirt that often came rolling in during the 1930's. She also has some interesting stories that she can share about those days of her life. She still lives at the farm location 4 miles north of Optima,Oklahoma. She will be 87 years old this September 4, 2009. Her phone number is 580-652-2672. I have also provide this information to PBS channel OETA in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Mr. Burns your numerous documentaries and historical DVD's, have always been enlighting and informative about the lands and nation in which we live, as well as the peoples who live here in this great nation. I hope your interviews with people who have survived the 1930's and Dust Bowl days will provide the authenticity you are wanting to present in this documentary about the era of the Dust Bowl days.
