Giving Thanks

On behalf of the Sag Harbor Lions Club, I want to publicly thank Chief Andrew Blodorn and his crew at the Sag Harbor Fire Department for helping to make our annual Easter Egg Hunt a special day for the community, and for dramatically and safely delivering the Easter Bunny (Vee Bennett) to the park! It is much appreciated! Mark Haslinger President Sag Harbor Lions Club 28 Apr 2025 by Staff Writer

Positive Actions

Denunciation by recitation would not stand up in court, nor should it in the court of public opinion. Without the strengths of context, evidence or sources, Carol Scott’s Letter to the Editor [“Bad for Southampton,” Letters, April 24] unfairly maligns Gordon Herr and, indirectly, the elected officials he has supported over the years. This prime example of poor opinion-shaping requires a response. Higher taxes: Reports from various local news sources inform that pension and health costs challenge public budgets in all five East End towns. Note: Past Democratic supervisors received high marks and lower bond rates from credit rating agencies ... by Staff Writer

Finding a Balance

A two-page spread in the current issue of New York magazine is headlined: “Where Is Our Post-Car City?” The subhead: “We need to be building right now. Instead, we’re stuck in traffic.” The piece details many non-realized ideas over the years to provide more means of mass transportation in the city. There have been many ideas on Long Island, too, to encourage public transit. A former presiding officer of the Suffolk County Legislature, Lou Howard, promoted for years a plan for a monorail running in the center of the Long Island Expressway. It didn’t get anywhere. And the cost to ... by Karl Grossman

You've Been Duped

I’d like to respond to Andi Klausner’s recent letter [“Beware of Grudges,” Letters, April 24], in which she assumed the role of grifter Gordon Herr’s “henchwoman.” Andi, you’re not the henchwoman — you’re the patsy. Andi’s letter got me thinking: Why would a well-respected activist, mother, wife, Housing Authority commissioner and vice chair of the Democratic Committee lie to Southampton voters about the existence of a cross-party endorsement deal admitted to and corroborated by both the Republicans and Conservatives? The answer? She wouldn’t — she isn’t a liar. Then, the epiphany came: Like the rest of the committee, Andi didn’t ... by Staff Writer

Soil Is Calling

Another growing season is starting, as potato planting on the East End gets underway. From year to year, farmers have no way of knowing when that first day of planting will begin. Everything depends upon the weather. Finally, the time is right to have potato seed cut and ready to go into the ground. And so the ritual of spring planting begins again. We see plows turning over furrows of dark, rich soil, followed by the potato planter putting the seed pieces into the ground. The hope is that, by Mother’s Day, the sprouts from the potato eyes will break ... by Staff Writer

Demands of Today

The news of the death of Pope Francis this week caused me to reflect on his extraordinary message of compassion. He challenged how we solve the enormity of our societal and economic problems while maintaining our compassion and humanity. We are troubled in this country by an unregulated, disorganized immigration policy. It must be changed to benefit American citizens. However, we cannot solve the problem without compassion for those who are coming here simply to seek a better life. Policy changes will require nuance and care, while ensuring enforcement. We want to encourage a free market system, which has allowed ... by Staff Writer

Chaos Democrats

Nothing new from our liberal Press columnists last week. Karl Grossman took aim at our former congressman and current EPA head, desperately making the typical climate argument that the sky is falling [“Much Less Green,” Suffolk Closeup, Opinion, April 24]. In spite of every extreme prediction proving to be woefully short of an extinction event, Mr. Grossman is outraged that Lee Zeldin has turned off the spigot of wasted taxpayer money flushed down the rabbit hole of wishful thinking that has helped divert billions of dollars in productivity away from our energy industry. The war on fossil fuel consumption has ... by Staff Writer

Stay the Course

It is encouraging, during Earth Week, to know that the Town of Riverhead is committed to renewable energy. It is moving ahead with a smart battery storage system using the latest fire protection technology and design. This is a great improvement over the older systems, three of which caught fire two years ago, inciting frightened opposition and causing many towns to back off battery commitments. Note that none of those fires caused personal or property harm outside the batteries themselves. Anti-battery groups, like fossil fuels-funded Protect Our Coast, are spreading lies, feeding on people’s misunderstandings, and tying them to offshore ... by Staff Writer
