They run the Board like a private club so why bother with formalities?<BR/><BR/>Would it be so difficult to announce this as they have access to the Town's email list and the Library has its own web site?<BR/><BR/>But this is a Library Board which believes only in providing costly expansion space for a Library which doesn't seek to provide information.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33594888.post-39791169114366826062008-01-02T21:20:00.000-05:002008-01-02T21:20:00.000-05:00Thank you 1/1/08, 5:54PM.

He is as apolitical as one can get.<BR/><BR/>Because he spoke out against Paul Feiner and then agreed with him lately, could it possibly mean he disagreed with him on some issues and agrees with him on others, irrespective of political labels?<BR/><BR/>Mike Kolesar is of the similar ilk. He is an honest man, ergo a bad politician.<BR/><BR/>There are an army of political hacks in Greenburgh, Samis and Kolesar are not members.They served their country, and not in the political hack brigade.<BR/><BR/>After all, just yesterday I complimented Paul Feiner for trying to help seniors. Does that make me a Feinerite? I don't think so. Emphatically NO!<BR/><BR/>However when he's right he's right. And,when he's wrong I try to take him to task.<BR/><BR/>I know it's difficult to be objective, but "don't get mad, get even," prevents one from getting ahead. And, standing or jogging in place is akin to going backwards.<BR/><BR/>Chill out.
