Prepared for Fire?

As I look around Flanders, I ask: How prepared are we to fight a disaster like the fires in California? Are we prepared with equipment and personnel?

Love Struck

There has been an eruption in America. It is a phenomenon I have not felt in my seven decades of life. There is a feeling that was missing certainly since Ronald Reagan’s second election landslide that spoke to a confidence that our values and beliefs had been restored. A visceral feeling of love for this nation that we so desperately have wanted to celebrate again. Yes, this sounds like the ravings of a love-struck teenager, and you wouldn’t be wrong to chuckle a bit and think this guy has lost it. And you would be right. The wave of joy ... by Staff Writer

A Few Questions

In his most recent letter to these pages, reader Ed Surgan [“Death Rattles,” Letters, January 23] bemoans the fact that President Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of defense, Peter Hegseth, was questioned about his alleged alcohol abuse and sexual misconduct during his confirmation hearings. If true, these issues would exclude him from almost any job in America. Mr. Surgan seems to think it is unfair that senators would want to investigate these matters at all. What Mr. Surgan does not address is Mr. Hegseth’s total lack of experience that would qualify him to lead an organization with a budget of ... by Staff Writer

Looking Back

We are all so sad to hear of Sylvester & Co. closing [“The Changing Face of the Sag Harbor Retail Scene,” 27east.com, January 7]. A great shop and a great lady — good coffee, too. Before Sylvester’s, it was Bohack’s food chain. I have a photo from the 1969 Old Whalers’ Parade, with me and Linda Giordano advertising his gallery, which opened in 1961 in Latham House. I have just closed the gallery after 64 years at the age of 86. The building was sold for $5,500,000. Wow! Rocco Liccardi Bridgehampton by Staff Writer

Gaslighting

What’s incredible is that The Sag Harbor Express chose to gaslight the community that school districts should brace for ICE raids [“School Officials Are Dealing With Anxieties and Uncertainty When It Comes to New Immigration Policies,” 27east.com, January 22]. Nothing can be further from the truth, but creating fear is apparently better than the reality. President Donald Trump wants to arrest and remove criminals wanted for rape, homicide and robbery and send them back to their countries of origin. The reality is, nothing at all will change in our school districts, and we will not have students nor their parents ... by Staff Writer
