Greene County Daily World: Opinion

Letters to the Editor (03/12/10)
To the Editor: On Friday, March 5, 2010, I read the article "Marsh Madness" in the Greene County Daily World and on Saturday/Sunday, March 6/7, I watched all the vehicles (sometimes in convoy) go by in front of our home. The point of this letter is that I was embarrassed that these people had to travel over Greene County's horrible (almost impassable) county roads. I wonder if any will ever make a second trip to our wetlands?...

Schools can't please everyone with snow make-up days (02/26/10)
Mother Nature has thrown the area's school superintendents a curveball so far this winter. Schools build in snow days to their schedule every year, but for the 2009-10 school year, there aren't enough. So superintendents and school boards have been forced to figure out how to make up the days lost when make-up days are gone...
