The writer and many others are missing the point of the recall petition.

Most of us who have publicly endorsed the recall are at just about our wits end from having unelected, non-recallable individuals making arbitrary decisions without seeking or without listening to the people they supposedly serve.

We are simply demanding a voice in the process and we know the piper will ultimately have to be paid. Even though the cost appears to be the result of the dereliction of duty by many who now pass the bill for their errors on to us.

It may seem like a waste of time to some but the price of freedom and democracy has never been quick or cheap. I for one am willing to pay that price to have my voice heard even though it ultimately will not affect the outcome.

Thanks so much for the photo of Casey Jones. Been on the road for almost sixty five years now, in a LOT of "capacities" and have never met anyone like him or his dad Cal. My sister Judy was named after his radio show partner in the early forties - Judith Lane. - Incidentially as you might have heard, Spain(25% unemployment), is beginng to feel a lot like Adair County in the late thirties, except no one here has a garden! Will send Forward of the book separately. - Richard Hovious

I too love the hydrants....and if we could have them all painted with different characters it would surely brighten everyones day. Great job to the artists. - Lois Cunningham

Not sure about anyone else, but I think all the fire hydrants in town should be painted like this. You're right - it makes you smile when you look at them. I believe it would brighten anyone's day when they look at them. Good job Vonnie and Darlene. - Lila Ford
