To the Editor:

To the woman driving the blue Volvo sedan who nearly struck me and my dog while we walked on Great Hill Road, Friday morning (May 18) at 5:45 am: Please put your make-up on at home and not while driving.

Sincerely,

Raymond Peterson

Financial Foundations: Strengthening Homeowner Financial Stability

The Newtown Bee welcomes the letters from all letter writers regardless of their political stance or how much paper and ink printing their letters uses (and by the way, your math is off). It seems to me that if the concern is a liberal writer taking space in our letters page every other week, the better way to deal with that is to write letters from a conservative mindset rather than attacking and attempting to discourage others from writing. Responses should address the points raised by the writer, not the fact that they chose to write.

24,619 printed pages have been devoted to this diatribe — more than an acre of paper. Beyond the cost to The Bee, with this installment #22 (XXII for the elites), the series has consumed roughly 400 pounds of newsprint (about 2–3 trees), a few thousand gallons of process water, and on the order of a couple hundred kilograms of CO₂e — all to keep re-litigating the same point. I guess I would have expected more out of the chair from the Sustainable Energy Commission chair.

I remember when the spirit of 'Nicer in Newtown' meant keeping national politics out of our local discourse. It’s a surprise to see someone I’ve known as long as Peter start putting party affiliation ahead of the initiatives that matter to us here at home. Let’s get back to focusing on local solutions, not partisan politics.

Federal Policies Are Local

A town administrator/operations manager will facilitate a more efficient management of town reseoruces and will result in cost avodiance in all departments. The position will payback much more than it costs.
