Sometimes it’s the public, not just a private individual or business, that has to yield immediate benefits for the sake of sound long-term planning. Your carefully thought-out editorial about Bostwick’s current effort to get a permit for a new roof makes the point about a typical case.

Sham MeetingApr 7, 2011
Well here we go again, the town board is considering holding another farce meeting on the leaf-pickup program. They didn’t listen to the residents the first time so why waste our time again?

Long OverdueApr 7, 2011

No One HomeApr 7, 2011

The interview was about my book, “My Father and Albert Einstein,” that was published in 2008 by iUniverse. I’m not sure if or when the interview would be broadcast in the East Hampton area.
