To Be Honored Springs February 17, 2012 David: This past Wednesday, Feb. 15, a large group from East Hampton attended the reception given for Lee Hayes. The reception was given by the Riverhead Historical Society. The date and time of this event were well published in advance. As most know, Lee is a Tuskegee airman — bombardier and pilot. He served at a time when racism was prevalent. I would estimate the crowd attending numbered close to 200.

Nothing to Fear Springs February 10, 2012 Dear Editor, I am the former managing editor of the New York Public Library, a book author, and an avid Kindle user of many years — so I read with interest Helen Rattray’s “Connections” column (Feb. 9) on her disenchantment with her Kindle and its possible threat to the traditional book.

Need to Name East Hampton January 30, 2012 Dear Editor, Twenty years ago I formed the habit of taking frequent walks on what I now know to be the Debra Brodie Foster Trail in Two Holes of Water Park. Since then the head of the trail has blossomed with information. This began in 1995 with a small and discreet bronze plate set into a large rock honoring Ms. Foster’s largess.

Pulled Together East Hampton January 7, 2012 Dear David, A search-and-recovery operation does not just happen. We have well-trained people in the Springs Fire Department and East Hampton Town police and Sag Harbor dive teams. There were many rescuers on the water recently, and we should be proud of them all. But at this point I would like to talk about our marine patrol, dive team, and ocean rescue team. Training that does not fall short when the emergency hits is not to be taken for granted.
