My wife and I live on the big island of Hawaii. Gas prices have been over $4.00 for awhile Therefore we only drive four days aweek unless absolutely necessary. Arrange all our trips to drive in a circurious circle. We compost,have solar only and propane for refer,stove and hot water heater. we have started a garden where we grow our own vegetables. We are both retired and our home is paid for. Thks

question:
why are there freelance reporters reporting for i-report? Isn't this meant for the public (lay people, of course not in the strict sense)
People who report for a living have the upper hand (i.e. better equipment, more access, etc)
It seems a little unfair that some people who already report for other channels or outlets post on here. Shouldn't they be directly sending CNN the reports and leave this for aficionados or amateurs?

I am trying to upload my story but it is taking long time and not being uploaded. Once I did but after that I could not. Please help me.

Hi Anbika - I'm sorry you're having trouble. Could you send the URL of the pending item in your My Stuff folder to contact@ireport.com? That way someone can troubleshoot and help you out. Thanks!
