Brockovich probe 'preliminary'

Eric Brockovich says her investigation into what's causing medical problems for several people in an upstate New York town is in its preliminary stages.  Some believe a chemical spill, more than forty years ago, is to blame for the tics and outbursts among some of the village's young people.


         Prelude to a Probe

Ms. Brockovich is probing, still,
A forty year old toxic spill;
She's taking her full bag of tricks
To see what's causing all those tics.
Folks hope Ms. Brockovich can tell
If it's why the youngsters scream and yell.
