Mining rules change

"The method, dubbed 'mountaintop mining,' involves shearing off the tops of ridges to expose a coal seam. Dirt and rock are pushed into nearby stream beds, a practice known as valley fill."

I really don't think that they're sugar-coating the wording enough here. Maybe they should term it "habitat reconstruction" instead of valley fill, and "paleo-ecosystem management" instead of mountaintop mining!
